Going to Ironman Wisconsin? These are the streets you should avoid

Leah Linscheid by Leah Linscheid







Hundreds of the world’s most athletic people are descending on downtown Madison this weekend for Ironman Wisconsin, and with them come many street closures and detours.

Patience will be the word of the day Sunday, police say. While main thoroughfares like John Nolen Drive and Johnson Street will remain open, several side streets in the downtown area will close down Sunday morning at 11 a.m. until midnight.

Some bicycle lanes will also be closed from 7:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m.

For people interested in watching the event in downtown Madison, find real-time parking availability in city lots here and on the UW campus here.

A full list of street closures can be found here.
