Thousands of fans are expected to head to the stadium to watch the Arizona Cardinals take on the Los Angeles Chargers. The game is set to start at 6 p.m. and the parking lot opens at 2 p.m. 

The Arizona Department of Transportation urged drivers headed to the game from the Chandler area or southeast Valley to use Loop 202 and avoid using Interstate 10 in the downtown Phoenix area. 

Glendale also will close the Loop 101 off-ramps at Cardinals Way and Maryland Avenue near the stadium from 6:30 to 10:30 p.m.

Heavier traffic is expected along Loop 101 and I-10 in the West Valley, according to ADOT.
