Salford Quays

Salford Quays and the surrounding area will provide a stunning backdrop to the triathlon and race walks events.

The triathlon is tipped to be one of the most popular events at the Games and thousands of spectators are expected. For security, and to make sure the event runs smoothly, there will be some local road closures and restrictions.
