A decision on whether a stage of the national Targa Rally will go ahead as planned in Whitemans Valley on October 31 will be made by the city council this evening.
Lengthy road closures for parts of Blue Mountains, Whitemans Valley, Mangaroa Valley and Flux Roads for the event have been opposed by about a dozen residents.
A fortnight ago a council committee deferred a decision to approve, or refuse, the road closures and instead rolled it over to tonight's full meeting.
Representatives of Targa are expected to attend this evening's 4.30pm meeting.
