The annual event takes runners around uphill Lincoln

Road closures have been announced for the City of Lincoln 10K race.

The annual event will take place on 6 April and is expected to attract thousands of runners to the uphill area of the city.

Organisers said some of the road closures would begin at 05:00 and end at 14:30 BST, though others would be in place for shorter durations.

The race will start in Riseholme Road and finish in Priory Gate. The route will take runners past the Roman walls, Lincoln Cathedral, Bishop Grosseteste University and the Museum of Lincolnshire Life.

Closures will affect streets including Longdales Road, Nettleham Road, Bailgate, Burton Road and Queen Elizabeth Road, among others.

Details of all road closures, timings and parking restrictions can be found on the Run For All website.
