Getting to tonight's match

[<dj.>]

I had this by email from the leader of the city council. It looks quite useful as it includes details of some road closures:

The police have notified me of their plans for the Portsmouth v Southampton game tonight. They expect it to be an exciting and emotive match for many supporters and residents alike.
This is one of the largest ever football policing operations in Hampshire and the public will see a significant police presence in and around the city offering reassurance to fans, as well as those living and working in the area. The police will be using various tactics to keep people safe, with help from dog units, the mounted section, roads policing, neighbourhood and public order teams, as well as drones and their colleagues from the National Police Air Service (NPAS) supporting from the skies.
Dedicated football officers play a key part in all of this, drawing on the vast knowledge they have from policing matches for both clubs, home and away.
On top of this, they are working closely with British Transport Police on the train network, with Southampton Football Club, supporting their fan coaches travelling to and from the ground safely and with Portsmouth Football Club co-ordinating the safe arrival and departure of all fans
There will also be tactics that will not be visible, all designed to keep people safe.
Possible road closures.
It is probable there will be traffic delays around the stadium. There are always parking restrictions around Fratton Park on match days. The Police have worked with Portsmouth Football Club and the council to see what needed to be done to help keep everyone safe. PFC have requested that the parking restrictions on Apsley Road, Frogmore Road and Carisbrooke Road are extended to include the whole of each road. There is also the option, if required to help ensure the safety of fans to close Goldsmith Avenue, from the junction with Priory Crescent to Fratton Road, incorporating Fratton Way, Rodney Road to Milton Road.
A closure could be put on at any time between 9pm and 11pm. In addition there will be a barrier on the corner of Specks Lane with Milton Lane.
I wanted to make sure you were aware of the steps the police have taken to ensure you and your family have a safe and enjoyable evening.
