The Bayview club are urging supporters to allow plenty of time to make their way to the ground and consider alternative modes of transport if this is possible.
“If you can, leave the car at home and use trains to either Central or Queen Street stations, and then the Glasgow Subway to St George’s Cross,” said the club.
“Fans can then take the 25-minute walk up Maryhill Road to the stadium.
