England begin their rugby union autumn international series this afternoon against Tonga
It's
the first of three matches at Twickenham this month.
Before
that Ireland start against Japan in Dublin.
Wales
face a tough test in bouncing back from a heavy defeat to New Zealand in their
opener when they host world champions South Africa.
Stay tuned to Jackie for travel news as roads around the stadium are expected to be very heavy.
Kick off is 3.15 and 82,000 people are expected.
If
pedestrian and vehicular traffic conditions require, temporary road closures
will be put in place in a number of roads around the stadium before kick off
and after the final whistle.
Roads that could be affected include Rugby Road,
Whitton Road (between London Road and Kneller Road), and London Road (between
King Street and Whitton Road).
Closures
typically take place around 1.5 to 2 hours before and after an event.
The
timings and duration will depend on the level of pedestrian traffic and the
time of the event.
