The Fitchburg Longsjo Classic has been supported and cherished by the greater Fitchburg community for 52 wonderful years. The race could not happen without community involvement and support. One thing that we know we need to do better is communicate with the residents directly affected by the different race courses.
Working with Police, Fire and DPW crews in Fitchburg, we have developed a system of detours and road closures which will allow racing to continue smoothly, and will help minimize any disruptions in normal traffic flow.
We have created a system of road closure and detour maps that we are encouraging residents to download and become familiar with. They are posted below:
