Roads closures
The road closures will be in force from 20 November 2011 until 13 December 2011 on the following lanes:
Mag and bag scanning processes
The ICC Durban complex becomes a United Nations site, where security officials mandated by the UN control entry and exit. Entry is only permitted for persons who have been accredited - no accreditation equals no entry and there will be no exceptions to this rule. Anybody entering the building will be subjected to mag and bag scanning processes.
There is no parking on site for the duration of the event; staff and contracted service providers will park at a designated offsite parking facility and a shuttle service will be made available to and from the ICC Durban. Parking at the ICC Durban will only be available again from 16 December after the breakdown of the conference infrastructure.
No dangerous items or weapons allowed
Only vehicles carrying heads of state will have access into the ICC precinct. Delegate busses will park at the transport hub located on the Centrum Parking site opposite the Durban Workshop. The entire site will be closed off in two secure areas. The outer perimeter will be the South African Zone, with the inner perimeter being fenced off for the United Nations Zone.
All persons and baggage entering the UN Zone will be searched prior to entry. All bags will be scanned to ensure no dangerous items are contained and no weapons of any kind will be allowed.
All suppliers delivering to the ICC will have their vehicles searched offsite before being escorted to the site by the SAPS and the Metro police. The ICC has requested suppliers to deliver according to a strict delivery schedule, ideally between midnight and 4am, as it might take as long as three hours for delivery clearance.
