So I got the robo call about the street closures for the Jingle Road Race... but is this information online anywhere with a map?

I just looked around the somerville website a bit with no success...

Thanks -- how did you find that?

I live two blocks from the route shown on that map, on Day Street. That should have put me high on the list of people to get robo-called, but I didn't get one.

When I googled jingle bell road race somerville, it came up under the website that you looked at. not sure why I got it and you didn't..

from what I remember of the robocall, they are blocking off the main streets used at 9am, and then the rest for the 11am start time?

I think you found a page that is no longer linked from anywhere else on their website.

I received this information as a robocall and also as an email message. I liked the email message better because I couldn't remember all of the information in the telephone message. Here's the email text:

Hello, this is Jackie Rossetti from the City of Somerville with information about road-race related street closures in your area this weekend.
