Road closures will be enforced for the event tonight (Saturday)
NEWBURY Racecourse is bracing itself for one of the busiest days of the year so far - Party in the Paddock.
A one-way traffic system will be in place for the event today (Saturday) which features CGA Ladies Day and a live performance from Irish boy band Westlife.
The restrictions will be in place from 10.30am to 4pm and Racecourse Road will become one-way to allow two lanes of traffic to travel east towards the racecourse before the event and westbound after the event.
However, one change from last time will see traffic on Boundary Road able to travel to Racecourse Road and turn left, although all other traffic from Boundary Road will have to turn right onto York Road.
Traffic from the Westwood Road estate will have to exit onto Pyle Hill and Greenham Road.
Police motorcyclists will be on hand to take enforcement action, if necessary, and report anyone not complying with the temporary traffic regulation orders.
Taxi firms are understood to have special dispensation with the restrictions, but anyone found not complying with the orders faces a possible fixed penalty.
Last year, the corresponding Party in the Paddock date, combining Ladies Day with music from Simply Red, attracted a modern-day record crowd at the racecourse of about 27,000 and the Irish pop group are expected to be just as popular, with more than 26,000 people expected at the event tomorrow.
The first race at the fixture, which also incorporates CGA Ladies Day and a Fashions in the Field competition to find the best dressed lady, starts at 1.25pm.
The last race starts at 4.45pm and the Westlife concert will begin at about 5.15pm, continuing through until about 6.30pm.
Gates open for the day at 10.30am.
