Potential road closures

For safety reasons, there may be a road closure on Hamil Road preventing vehicular movement until Hamil Road is clear of pedestrian footfall.

The closure points will be Hamil Road junction with Jenkins Street and Lorne Street, creating a sterile area for egressing pedestrians.

The planned timings would be from the final whistle (or earlier) until the highway is clear of pedestrians. The closure could be in position prior to the final whistle as a precautionary measure, depending on score and high volumes of early leavers, it is anticipated that the closure could be in place for 30 - 45 minutes.
