Derek Peterson, spokesman from the Transport Management Centre, said they are expecting a lot of traffic on the highway as well as buildup on smaller local rounds surrounding the site on Lubkes Road off Henty-Cookardinia Road.
Rush hour is expected during arrival time from 8-11am and as visitors stream out of the site from 3-6pm, with motorists advised to seek alternative routes or be prepared to settle in for a long trip.
Live traffic updates will be available on the Live Traffic NSW website across the three days for those Henty bound or motorists travelling between Wagga and Albury trying to avoid the crowds.
No highways will be closed but Mr Peterson said from previous experience the roads will be “very busy”.
The field days are open from 8-5pm daily
