Road Closure Notice – Sunday, October 21, 2018
TORONTO, Oct. 19, 2018 /CNW/ - On Sunday, October 21, more than 25,000 elite and
recreational runners from over 70 countries will hit the streets
for the 29th edition of the Scotiabank Toronto
Waterfront Marathon (STWM).
STWM is more than a great running event – through the Scotiabank
Charity Challenge, the race raises money for nearly 200 local
charities that are focused on helping young people reach their
infinite potential and building vibrant communities. Over the
weekend, the event is expected to bring more than $30 million in economic activity to the GTA,
creating the equivalent of 100 full-time, year-round jobs.
The Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon works closely with
the City of Toronto, Toronto Police, Toronto Transit Commission and
City Councillors to minimize disruptions for Toronto residents.
