HARTFORD, CONN (October 4, 2022) – Today, Mayor Luke Bronin and the Hartford Police Department announced a list of roadways that will be closed to vehicular traffic both prior to and during the 2022 Eversource Hartford Marathon and Half Marathon.

“We are excited to welcome thousands of runners to Hartford next weekend for the 29th annual Eversource Hartford Marathon,” said Mayor Bronin. “The Marathon brings people from all across our state and across the region and the country, and it’s an important tradition and a powerful generator of economic activity.  I want to thank Eversource and the Hartford Marathon Foundation, and all its volunteers, as well as our police, public works department, fire department, and the entire City of Hartford team, for their tireless work making the Hartford Marathon successful and fun for everyone. As part of preparations to make sure the day of the race runs as smoothly as possible, we will be closing select roads to vehicular traffic in the days leading up to the marathon as well as on race day, so we urge everyone to look at the road closures early and plan accordingly.”

"In conjunction with our partners in Hartford, we appreciate the support of the communities, residents and businesses who open up their streets to allow thousands of people to safely participate in the Eversource Hartford Marathon and Half Marathon, a community event with a long history of benefiting charity and boosting local economic activity," said Josh Miller, race director of the Eversource Hartford Marathon and Half Marathon.  "Our goal is to minimize impacts and we urge everyone living or traveling around the area to visit hartfordmarathon.com to help plan in advance if alternate routes will be necessary."
