To help Indianapolis Motor Speedway guests determine the best driving routes to parking locations nearest to their seats, the track has been divided into three color zones. The north end of the track is the red zone, the western portion of the facility is the green zone, and the south end of the track is the orange zone.
There is a roundabout located at 16th Street and Crawfordsville Road. Guests cannot access Georgetown Road from 16th Street or Crawfordsville Road because it does not connect to the roundabout.
IMS has worked closely with the Speedway Police Department, as well as other law enforcement agencies, on the traffic plan for IMS events. All Speedway patrons should be aware of the following to ensure a successful Race Day:
- Street Closures: 16th Street will be closed prior to the start of the GMR Grand Prix Race. Closure will occur between Olin Avenue on the east to the 16th Street roundabout on the west at approximately 3 p.m. In addition to the 16th Street closure, Polco Street will not be accessible northbound from 10th Street during this time.
- Gate 2 & Credentialed Parking: Fans should know that Gate 2 is not accessible via car without a credentialed or pre-paid parking parking pass. In addition, if you have a Turn 3 credentialed or pre-paid parking pass, you must enter through Gate 10 and not Gate 2.
- Fans needing ADA accessible parking inside the oval should contant the IMS Ticket Office to purchase. Free ADA Parking is available in the North 40 parking lot while spaces remain. ADA Parking in the North 40 is accessible via 30th St and Gate 10 only.
