Some road closures have already been implemented around the precinct - these include Dorothy Nyembe and Dr Pixley KaSeme streets (formerly Gardiner and West).

Road closures are expected to be in place until midday.

Durban Metro Police spokesperson Parboo Sewpersadh says rolling road closures will be used to ensure routes are reopened as the parade passes through.
