Traffic Warning For South Belfast Ahead Of Northern Ireland Match

Road users are advised to plan for potential traffic delays in the south Belfast area on Friday, 15th November due to the UEFA Nations League football match between Northern Ireland and Belarus.

The match will take place at Windsor Park, kicking off at 7.45pm, and it is expected that around 18,000 supporters will attend.

Significant traffic congestion is anticipated on the M1, Donegall Road, and particularly the Boucher Road areas both before and after the game. Supporters and shoppers are advised to plan their journeys in advance and to be aware of a planned parade in the city centre, starting at 6pm. Participants will travel from City Hall to Great Victoria Street via Wellington Place and Fisherwick Place. Those attending the match should factor this into their travel plans, allowing extra time or seeking alternative routes where possible.

Drivers are urged to park considerately, avoiding disruption to local residents and businesses. Supporters are also asked to be respectful and considerate when walking through residential areas near the stadium.

Please note that the areas around the stadium are designated ‘No Street Drinking’ zones under Belfast City Council by-laws, and these regulations must be adhered to at all times.
