Santas Fun Run – Road closures

| |

The Rotary Clubs of Marlow have already announced that they have reached their capacity of 3000 places – totally SOLD OUT – and are not accepting further entries for the 2025 Marlow Santas Fun Run.

In 2024 over £95,000 was raised for mainly local charities – and the organisers are hopeful that this sum will be exceeded this year.


As always – when around 3000 people take part watched by another 2-3000 spectators – there is some disruption because of road closures. 2500 letters are being hand delivered to local addresses most affected, and the information will also appear on social media.


FULL DETAILS – ROAD CLOSURES – DECEMBER 7 th
Entrants will congregate in Higginson Park from around 8.00 AM ready for a 9.20AM walk to the High Street and a 9.30AM start. Leading runners are usually back by 9.50AM, and virtually everyone will hopefully have completed the course by around 11.00AM


The core route progressively impacts the following roads – and associated junctions:

  • Marlow Bridge, High Street (closed 9.20AM to around 11.00AM).
  • Spittal Street (closed 9.20AM to around 10.00AM)
  • Glade Road (closed 9.20AM to around 10.30AM)
  • Station Road, Dedmere Road, Fieldhouse Lane, Westhorpe Road and Wiltshire Road (closed 9.20AM to circa 10.30AM)
  • Parkway (open throughout but drive with care)
  • Fieldhouse Lane, Lock Road, Mill Road, Station Road, and back across the High Street (closed 9.30AM to circa 11.00AM).
  • Roads may open slightly earlier – or later – dependent on runner progress.
    Please note the road closures have all been authorised by relevant authorities and statutory warning signs have been deployed in advance.
