Disruption will be kept to a minimum and commuters are encouraged to travel before or after the closure times.
Parking spaces within the road closures will be suspended while the event takes place, with spectators advised to park in other city centre car parks, such as George Street multistorey.
The Queen’s Baton Relay will culminate in the host city of Birmingham, where it will take a central role in the Birmingham 2022 Opening Ceremony on 28 July.
