Figure image
Supporters travelling to Welford Road and the city centre should be aware that a diversion will be in operation due to roadworks on Upperton Road in Leicester from October 19.

Work on replacing the viaduct with a ground-level road and new bridge over the Old River Soar plus cyclist/pedestrian crossing at the Great Central Way junction means part of Upperton Road will be closed.

Upperton Road runs between Narborough Road (A5460) and Aylestone Road (A426)/Welford Road (A50) close to Tigers' home and the Walkers Stadium.

Car users should follow diversion signposting and allow extra time for journeys in and out of the city centre. The route will also be closed to pedestrians, with diversions in operation.
