Road closures:

Residents and motorists are advised of temporary road closures in the Green Point Precinct and surrounds on Friday afternoon until after the game.
 
This includes Fritz Sonnenberg Road, Stephen Way, Helen Suzman at the Green Point Circle and Granger Bay Boulevard.

"For the entire rugby season, the MyCiTi shuttle service has worked tremendously to reduce traffic congestion on the roads, and we are grateful to the thousands of spectators who have used the service to get to the stadium. For this final match of the URC regular season, we ask rugby spectators to continue the tradition of using the shuttle, especially for this Friday's game when our roads will be shared with other motorists exiting the city centre and those coming in for an evening in the CBD. The shuttle, with its dedicated lane to the stadium, will ensure that you beat the traffic and get to the stadium smoothly."
