For security reasons supporters are urged where possible not to bring bags to Scottish Gas Murrayfield. Bags larger than A4 size (21cm x 15cm) will not be permitted unless required for medical or childcare reasons. All bags no matter the size will be searched before entry to the stadium. Patrons are encouraged where possible not to bring bags as the process of searching slows progress through turnstiles.
For more information about match day, visit the Scottish Rugby website.
Those travelling by train are advised by ScotRail to expect longer waiting times after the rugby due to limited access at Haymarket station, due to the ongoing redevelopment of an adjacent building.
The building work has restricted access to Haymarket and reduced the capacity within the station by half, which means some customers may be redirected to Edinburgh Waverley to catch their train due to the limited space available within Haymarket station.
Fans are asked to consider travelling straight to Edinburgh Waverley after the final whistle to reduce their need to queue or to postpone travel until later in the evening.
