WRU in plea to Wales v New Zealand fans as rail strikes expected to cause Cardiff chaos

Wales fans have been urged to arrive in Cardiff as soon as possible ahead of Saturday's clash with the All Blacks.

The opening game of the autumn campaign falls on the first of three days of planned rail strikes for November, meaning travel options to the Principality Stadium will be severely hampered for fans. As such, the Welsh Rugby Union have advised supporters to arrive in the Welsh capital as soon as possible ahead of the 3.15pm kick-off.

Roads are expected to be extremely busy given the strain on public transport. And while the Welsh Rugby Union have announced extra measures to help mitigate that pressure, such as extra park-and-ride and added bus services, fans are still being urged to arrive in Cardiff well before kick-off to avoid missing out on the action.
