What the published route says
The published outline puts the race on the A-397 approach before it crosses San Pedro Alcántara and heads back towards the motorway.
According to Marbella City Hall, the route is expected to enter San Pedro Alcántara by the A-397, also known locally as the old Ronda road. It is then due to continue through the urban area, use the Avenida Oriental junction and Avenida Luis Braille, pass the boulevard roundabout and Avenida Norberto Goizueta, and leave towards the motorway through Guadalmina.
When to expect disruption
The key practical window is mid-afternoon, although the final traffic plan has not yet been published.
The municipal notice puts the publicity caravan at about 15:30. It places the peloton at approximately 16:15 to 16:20. These timings are estimates rather than a final closure notice, so drivers, bus users and people with appointments in San Pedro Alcántara should check the council’s updates closer to the event.
Why this matters in Marbella
Residents can expect a busy afternoon in San Pedro Alcántara, particularly along the announced route and motorway approaches.
The race shares the date with a basketball fixture at the Palacio de Deportes Elena Benítez, as stated by the council. That combination could add pressure to access roads and parking. The council has not yet set out the exact restrictions, duration or alternative routes, so those details remain unconfirmed.

Marbella Daily will update this brief when the detailed traffic plan is published. For now, allow extra time for journeys through San Pedro Alcántara on 11 September 2026 and avoid relying on normal parking availability near the announced route during the afternoon.
