The meeting is expected to have some impact on the daily lives of the residents of the capital area on both days. For safety reasons, streets around Harpa will be closed to vehicle traffic during the meeting, but it will be possible to move around the area on foot and by bike. This does not apply, however, to the area closest to Harpa, which is closed to the public during this time.

Traffic delays can also be expected in the entire capital area due to the driving of delegations to police escort to and from Keflavík Airport and Reykjavík Airport. The impact will be most pronounced this afternoon, both today and tomorrow. Road users in the capital area should, therefore, please point out that you estimate longer than usual travel time to travel between places on the days of the summit. This also applies to road users who intend to travel on Reykjanesbraut, that is between the Suðurnes region and the capital area on those same days – not least air passengers.

There will be no public transport within the closure area. Buses travel on changed routes during the closure until 19.00 on Wednesday 17 May.
