A map has been revealed showing the route of Stage 5 of the race which starts in Central Avenue.
The eagerly anticipated Nottinghamshire stage of this year’s race for Thursday September 8 has been outlined.
It will start on Central Avenue in West Bridgford and will visit Ruddington, Bunny, East Leake, Costock, Keyworth, Plumtree, Cotgrave, Cropwell Bishop, Cropwell Butler, Radcliffe and Shelford and finish in Mansfield.
It is the third time the showpiece event will take place in the county and is in conjunction with Rushcliffe Borough Council, the Tour, Nottinghamshire County Council, Mansfield District Council and other local authorities and follows the hugely successful staging of the race in 2017 and 2018.
The 190km route, approximately 118 miles, will attract a global television audience of millions and will again be aired live on ITV4.
The Nottinghamshire stage attracted 250,000 spectators in 2018 to make it the largest sporting event in the county’s history, leading to our area enjoying an economic boost of £3.9 million being spent by participants and spectators on accommodation, food and drink and shopping.
In due course our events team will invite all interested parties, including Town and Parish Councils and other groups and individuals to a find out more session on how they can get involved in the Tour celebrations in their communities, building on their wonderful efforts in 2018.
