Here’s what the city is saying:
What to expect:
Street use restrictions will be in place on several arterial streets, transit routes, and within the metro core, particularly around Vancouver match dates. Please visit vancouverfwc26.ca/road-closures for more information on stadium-area road closures and refer to the attached maps for updated venue locations, connections, and restricted corridors.
Vancouver Match Dates:
- Saturday June 13th
- Thursday June 18th
- Sunday June 21st
- Wednesday June 24th
- Friday June 26th
- Thursday July 2nd
- Tuesday July 7th
Key Highlights:
- Restrictions are in place primarily on match days, the day before match days, and the day after match days.
- To ensure we can safely support an event of this magnitude there will be temporary road closures, and some roads will be designated “local traffic only” for vehicles around BC Place Vancouver and False Creek. Emergency services such as police, fire and ambulance will still be able to access all affected roads.
- Connections between the airport and downtown, and the FIFA Fan Festival at the PNE will have restrictions on all days between June 11th and July 19th.
- Streets downtown, near the stadium, and near False Creek will have no opportunity for additional street use on match days.
- There will be limited opportunities for activities requiring significant street impacts (e.g. crane installations, concrete pours, large deliveries).
