From 08:00 to 17:00, Novodevichy Embankment from Savvinsky Embankment to Luzhnetskaya Embankment and Luzhnetskaya Embankment from Novodevichy Embankment to Luzhniki Street will be closed.

Consensus

Road closures and parking bans were implemented in central Moscow from September 5 to 6.
The closures were due to mass events including the 'Day of Walking' festival and 'Moscow Sprint' ski-roller races.
The 'Museum Mile' run caused road restrictions on September 5 in the Yakimanka and Zamoskvorechye districts.
A tram parade on September 6 led to road closures in central Moscow.
Parking was prohibited on all restricted road segments during the events.
The restrictions were announced by Moscow's Department of Transport and traffic management authorities.
