The 20th Annual Arlington Turkey Trot Fun Run will be held in Arlington on November 27, with the Arlington County Police Department announcing several road closures. Closures are expected to begin around 7:30 a.m., affecting streets including N. Pershing Drive, N. Oxford Street, and other nearby roads.
Residents needing access through the closed areas will be escorted by police as necessary. Roads are expected to reopen at 11:00 a.m., with officers managing traffic to facilitate a smooth return to normal conditions. A heightened police presence will be in place, and drivers are advised to follow instructions, watch for participants, and be prepared for any additional closures.
Commuters should be aware of extensive parking restrictions in the event area. Arlington County has posted temporary “No Parking” signs, and vehicles in violation may be ticketed or towed. Information on towed vehicles is available through Arlington County’s online vehicle status portal. For additional assistance, residents can contact the county’s non-emergency number at 703-558-2222.
Drivers are advised to navigate the area carefully due to the increased number of pedestrians and to help reduce congestion by using private driveways for parking where possible. Arlington County officials have requested that residents keep vehicles off the streets during closures to facilitate a smoother return to normal traffic once the event ends.
