The Frisco Public Library will be open from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on Saturday but there will be no vehicular access to the Frisco Square Christmas Light Show Saturday night.  A couple roads will also be closed a day earlier (on Friday, December 3).

Coleman Blvd and the portion of Simpson Plaza directly in front of the George A. Purefoy Municipal Center will be closed on Friday between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. (see attached map for Dec. 3).  On Friday, drivers approaching the businesses on Coleman Blvd should use the parking areas behind the buildings, which are accessible from driveways on Main St or from World Cup Way.  Drivers approaching City Hall and the Public Library along Main St should turn south onto World Cup Way or Frisco St.  Visitors will not be able to drive or park directly in front of the Municipal Center, but any driver who circulates around Simpson Plaza will be diverted to circulate around the back of the building where they will have access to the free parking garage.  ADA accessible parking is available on each level of the garage next to the elevator.

At 5 p.m., Coleman Boulevard and Simpson Plaza will reopen to traffic in time for the Frisco Square Christmas Light Show.

Elliott Dr, Page St and Dallas Pkwy as an alternate route south of the race. Detour signs will be posted.

From the north, Frisco St will only provide local traffic access down to Research Rd.  Northbound traffic will not be affected.  Those approaching Fieldhouse USA, the hotels on Sports Village Rd and Enterprise Dr, and other nearby facilities will need to approach on Main St from the east and then use northbound Frisco St (see attached map for Dec. 4 Before 10am)

Residents, employees and customers of Coleman Blvd who arrive before 10 a.m. can use northbound Dallas Pkwy, Frisco Square Blvd, and World Cup Way to access the parking on the west side of Coleman Blvd, or they can use westbound Main St and turn south on Frisco St to access the East Frisco Square Parking Lot. 

Race participants will park in the west parking lots of Toyota Stadium or in the parking garage behind the library. During the street closures, the parking at Toyota Stadium must be accessed from the northbound Dallas Pkwy frontage road. Drivers on Dallas Pkwy should turn right at the first driveway north of Main St or turn right onto Technology Dr.  The library parking garage must be accessed from Page St, which can be reached from northbound Dallas Pkwy or from John W. Elliott Dr (see attached map for Dec. 4 Before 10am).

Frisco Public Library patrons, Cinemark customers, and Medical City visitors who arrive before 10 a.m. will need to approach the area on northbound Dallas Pkwy and turn right onto Page St or follow the westbound Main St detour onto Page St (see attached map for Dec. 4 Before 10am).  The Library opens at 10 a.m. at which time Main St will be open, but Coleman Blvd and Simpson Plaza will remain closed through the rest of Saturday.

The library will close early at 3:30 p.m.

Throughout the day, customers of Frisco Square businesses and restaurants can park in the East Parking Lot (by using its driveways on Main St and Frisco St) or in the public portions of the West Parking Garages (by using World Cup Way).
