Has anyone made use of Park and Ride facilities at Nasrec to get to Orlando Stadium

I see for the world cup there is strict enforcement of having to make use of the Park and Ride

If so is there clear signage along the way to Nasrec indicating where to park etc?

How long does it take to get from the Park and Ride to the stadium?

How often are the buses?

There is precious little information on the internet about this

I am also assuming that with the show starting at 4pm and TV coverage at 8pm that the international acts will only be on from 8pm then

Have been looking for a artist line-up in vein to see when which artist is on

Thanks
 
Dunno. never been, just know they are both in Soweto :->

Well according to the Orlando Stadium Website you can Park at either Nasrec or Gold Reef City

Any Super 14 Final people around who made use of this service that can confirm this or shed more light?
 
Hmmm

Don't think that is right. I was of the opinion that you drive to Nasrec or Gold Reef City and then take bus to Stadium
 
Does anybody know the order at times at which each artist will perform

I mean the first act starts at 4pm but TV coverage only starts at 8pm so I am assuming this is when the international bands will be on

It would be nice to which artists are going to be performing at what time
