85th Giro del Veneto: route
Re-proposed in 2021, after nine years of absence, the race will see the best international athletes compete in an exciting itinerary of about 160 kilometers between the Euganean and Berici hills, with a total altitude difference of 1,500 meters. The route will wind through the historical and architectural beauties of the city and the Berici hills, passing in front of Villa La Rotonda and through the uphill road on the Military Road.
In the first section, the military road of Arcugnano will be traveled to reach the Sanctuary of the Madonna di Monte Berico, from where the descent towards the city center will begin, through the streets of the historic center, including Corso Palladio. We will then return to Arcugnano, through the Riviera Berica and the Tormeno road, to resume the military road and thus repeat the same circuit three consecutive times, until the end of the race in viale Roma.

The road network will be heavily affected by the transit of the race, especially in the south-east quadrants and the historic center. Slowdowns and disruptions to circulation will be possible.
Based on the progress of the competition, a ban on vehicles on the roads involved in the route will be progressively established, with a ban on parking on all stalls along the route from the morning.
All the lateral ones that pertain to the race course will be closed to transit or will undergo different discipline.
Viale Roma will be closed from 6 am, from the intersection with the station square at the exit from the Verdi car park, with the consequent suppression of bus stops; in addition, the viale Bologna car park will be reserved for the organization’s vehicles. Viale Mazzini is also partially closed to traffic, in order to allow competition activities at the parking lot of the Municipal Theater, closed since the morning.
There are deviations for the urban and extra-urban bus routes. The train station and the Svt bus station will not be reachable by car.
