There’s going to be a lot of traffic, and construction plays into that, as well as the anticipated large crowds.
Fans are urged to get to the game early Saturday. In fact, the recommendation from the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office is to arrive five hours before kickoff, which is set for 3:30 p.m. — that means fans should arrive 10:30 a.m.
“All of these lots that you see around here are labeled. They know where they are going. If you have a parking pass, it needs to be displayed so that the officers can see that. The officers will get them to where they need to go and get them in the stadium quickly,” Officer Christian Hancock, public information officer for the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office said Friday on “The Morning Show.”
“We have a lot of new roadways that have opened in the last week. A lot of construction is going on around the stadium. These are going to be new road to people who have been here in years past. We want them to follow the officers’ lead — not their GPS,” Hancock said.
