First of all, the decision of the Copa do Brasil will be played this Sunday, the 10th, at Arena MRV, in Belo Horizonte. Atlético-MG will host Flamengo needing to reverse a 3-1 advantage that was built by the red-black team in the first game. The ball will roll at 4pm (Brasília time).
As this is a game considered high risk as it is a decision, Belo Horizonte City Hall has prepared a special traffic scheme. Fans attending the MRV Arena will find some streets closed, but there are alternatives for accessing the stadium. At this moment, with around four hours left until the game, movement is very good in the surrounding area.

Arrival at the stadium
Vehicles will access the Arena MRV parking lots using the stadium's access ramp towards Contagem. Drivers must pay attention to signage and instructions from agents from the Integrated Traffic Unit, especially with the large number of pedestrians in the region. Parking gates will open three hours before the start of the match.
Signage with cones and zebra tape will be implemented on the right lane of the Via Expressa waterfront, towards Belo Horizonte, allowing pedestrians to walk safely from the Eldorado metro station to Rua Gentil Portugal do Brasil, accessing the stadium through from the Elevado da Massa.
For pedestrians who wish to cross the Via Expressa, an operational traffic light was installed near the staircase, which only operates during events at the stadium.
For visiting fans, a pick-up and drop-off area will be created on Av. Cícero Idelfonso, between Felisberta Camargos and Maria Francisca de Carvalho streets, towards BR 040.
To use transport via apps, it is recommended that visiting fans set their destination at Rua Emerenciana Batista Camargos, in the California neighborhood. Avoid the route along Via Expressa, which is intended for home fans. Arrive at the stadium early! Railings will be built in the California neighborhood, allowing access only to local traffic for residents and passengers on lines 1509 and 9414.
Exit from the stadium
– Leaving the stadium, in the direction of Belo Horizonte, will be done by returning to Elevado da Massa, which 30 minutes before the end of the events begins to operate in one way in the direction of California/Camargos, speeding up the exit of vehicles from the parking lot. Circulation returns to normal on the viaduct after all vehicles leave the parking lots;
– A railing will be implemented to ensure pedestrian safety on the Elevado da Massa. In this way, the elevated road will operate with a section for vehicles leaving the parking lot towards Camargos and another railed section for pedestrians;
– Depending on the demand for vehicles, a counterflow operation may be implemented at the exit of the parking lots, allowing vehicles to use the access loop to the stadium in the opposite direction, thus heading towards the central lane of Via Expressa, towards Belo Horizonte. To carry out this “counterflow” operation with maximum safety, a new traffic light was installed on Via Expressa, in the direction of Contagem, close to the access ramp to the stadium. The equipment will only operate during the departure of events at the stadium, the objective of which is to retain the flow of vehicles towards Contagem, ensuring the safety of those leaving the stadium towards Belo Horizonte.
