Hungary–Armenia: Changes to transport in Budapest on Saturday
Change language:
Public transport and traffic arrangements will change on Saturday afternoon in the area around Puskás Aréna due to the Hungary–Armenia international football match, the Budapest Transport Centre (BKK) announced on Thursday via MTI.
Traffic changes in Budapest, around the stadium
The match will kick off at 6 PM on Saturday, but numerous traffic restrictions and closures will already be in effect from 3 PM around the stadium, the statement said.
Due to limited parking options, BKK is asking fans to use public transport to reach the match. Travellers are advised to take advantage of the more frequent services of fixed-rail transport — metro lines M2 and M4, tram line 1 — as well as the MOL Bubi public bike-sharing system.
How to approach the stadium
Entry to the stadium will be possible from Dózsa György Road and Stefánia Road. The stadium is within walking distance not only from the Puskás Ferenc Stadion metro station but also from Keleti Railway Station via Verseny Street, with a similar walking time.
Before and after the match, metro lines M2 and M4 and tram line 1 will operate more frequently than usual. All buses running along Thököly Road will stop at both the Reiner Frigyes Park and Thököly út/Stefánia út stops.
