Alternate Routes: Traffic will be diverted from Faizabad to Expressway and Saidpur Road.
Stadium Road Closure: The road will remain closed from 9th Avenue Chowk to Double Road Turn during the match.
Parking and Shuttle Service: Five designated parking areas will be available, with shuttle services to the stadium.
Public Guidance:

Social Media and FM Radio: The CTP’s social media pages and FM radio station will provide updates and guidance.
“We urge citizens to cooperate with traffic police for smooth traffic flow during the cricket match,” said Chief Traffic Officer Beenish Fatima. “We have made elaborate arrangements to ensure convenience for commuters.”
