DIRECTIONS & PARKING ADVICE
WE ARE IN FRANKLIN PARK OFF PIERPONT RD
NEAR THE GIRAFFE ENTRANCE TO THE FRANKLIN PARK ZOO
By T: Take the orange line to Forest Hills and the bus to Franklin Park and walk to Registration & the Race/Walk/Move start which is off Pierpont Rd near White Stadium and the "Giraffe Entrance" to the Franklin Park Zoo.
A fairly simple driving route: Take I93 to the Columbia Rd Exit. Follow Columbia Rd toward Franklin Park (some small signs are on the way.) A different good way to drive: Follow Magazine St, Roxbury to Blue Hill Ave. Follow Blue Hill Ave to the park entrance which will be on your right.
Enter the park by turning onto Circuit Rd from Blue Hill Ave or the Arborway (Near Forest Hills.) From Circuit Rd turn onto Pierpont Rd, which is clearly marked, across from the golf course.
Parking is available on Circuit and Pierpont Roads. There may be temporary cardboard signs that say “no parking” left over from a big event in the morning which will be ending before ours begins. You will be allowed to park if it is a cardboard “no parking” sign (but if it is a regular metal “no parking” sign, then don’t park!
Look for our Banner on one of the backstops near the Giraffe Entrance to the Zoo and our Bright orange “Flight Team” Shirts !
