Why 500 Teams?
Last year, with 315 teams, participants experienced traffic congestion on various parts of the course. In order to minimize traffic congestion and accomodate 500 teams the MyoMed Ragnar Relay will increase the spread in the middle of the race. This means that while there will be 185 more teams on the course, the teams will be spread out across 12 hours instead of 5. As a result, there will be less congestion during the race. In addition to increasing the spread we will be taking the following steps to further reduce congestion:
Additional police officers at potential congestion locations
Additional volunteers and increased traffic control at potential congestion locations.
Additional exits at Rockport Reservoir
