The State Police structures, relying on the positive experience in planning, organizing and managing the public order and security situation during international activities, have drafted a plan of measures, which foresees the tasks that will be carried out by all Police services, in coordination with other institutions.

To facilitate vehicle traffic in the city of Tirana, on 12.11.2026, from 17:00 until the end of the match, the State Police, in cooperation with the Tirana Municipal Police, will apply vehicle traffic restrictions on several road axes near the stadium.

Roads that will be blocked from 17:00 until the end of the match:

- “Martyrs of the Nation” Boulevard, from the “Laguna” fast food, near the bridge of the former Hotel Dajti;

-“Papa John Paul II” Street, at the intersection of RTSH;

-“Dervish Hima” Street, near the US Embassy;

-“Asim Zeneli” Street, near the US Embassy;

-“Themistokle Gërmenji” Street, at the entrance;

-At "Willson" Square, shortly before the end of the match, traffic will be diverted towards "Sami Frashëri" Street.

Elbasani Street, the Ring Road and "Bajram Curri" Boulevard will be free for vehicle movement.

In accordance with the plan of measures, State Police officers will conduct detailed checks on fans before entering the stadium, in order to prevent the entry into the stadium of banners with racist content, fireworks, flares, pyrotechnics, metal coins, umbrellas, lighters, mobile phone chargers, tools and products for cosmetic use, as well as other hard objects that are dangerous to the life and health of participants.

We ask for the understanding of fans to show up at the stadium entrances, starting at 18:30, as, due to the influx of fans, shortly before the start of the match, they may miss the opportunity to enter the stadium.

For the smooth running of this sporting activity, the State Police has engaged hundreds of police officers, who will guarantee public order and safety, as well as provide assistance and information to fans, if necessary, so that this activity can be concluded without incidents, in the interest of the country's image.
