There will be an updated park-and-ride system in place for the upcoming Springboks vs Argentina test on September 28, as they will adopt a dual-route set-up this time around.
There will be limited early-bird parking on the soccer fields opposite the stadium from 10:00 until they’re full. You may only take up one parking spot with your vehicle. You may not set up gazebos that occupy another parking spot.
Afterwards, the stadium precinct will be closed off to members of the public who aren’t VIPs, part of the hospitality staff or members of the media. You may not light any open fires in this area, but gas braais are welcome.
VIPs, hospitality staff and members of the media will be required to access the stadium via the Riverside-Mataffin link road (the P166 to Matsafeni). The park-and-ride options for the public will be open between 11:30 and 15:00 before the game, and until 21:30 after the game.
There are a total of 11 pick-up points available. This includes eight schools at which parking will cost R100 per vehicle. The other points that aren’t schools won’t charge for parking.
The points have been split up along two routes. There will be separate drop-off points at the stadium, which include the stadium’s main gate as well as the bus terminal on the southern side of the stadium.
When you leave the stadium after the match, you need to ensure you get on a bus that is at the same spot where you were dropped off before the match.
That bus will then make a stop at every park-and-ride pick-up point along the route after the match, and all you need to do is ensure you get off at the right spot. Those using the Government Complex must note that minibuses will be used for transport to and from the stadium.
Drop-off via stadium main gate:
• Fresh Produce Market (R37)
• Government Complex
• Hoërskool Rob Ferreira
• Laerskool Witrivier.
Drop-off at bus terminal on the southern side of Mbombela Stadium:
• Valley Hyper
• Hoërskool Nelspruit
• Laerskool Nelspruit
• Hoërskool Bergvlam
• Nelspruit Primary
• Lowveld High School
