Cricket World Cup takes over Long Island, including heightened security and road closures – NBC New York

The area in and surrounding Nassau County’s Eisenhower Park is being largely shut down to non-ticket-holders during the 12-day tournament. Matches will be played Monday, Wednesday and Friday of next week — and then daily from June 8 on.
Police are asking people to steer clear of the area through the duration. Eisenhower Park itself will be closed to the public from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. through the tournament.
On match days, Park Boulevard, which runs through the park, will be closed in both directions from 6:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Merrick Avenue, which borders the park, will be closed in both directions between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m., from Hempstead Turnpike to Charles Lindbergh Boulevard. Local traffic will only be allowed from Stewart Avenue.
Charles Lindbergh Boulevard eastbound will be closed from Earle Ovington Boulevard between 4:30 a.m. and 6 p.m. Westbound traffic to the Meadowbrook Parkway won’t be affected.

The park is still expected to be closed on non-match days, but Park Boulevard will be open to traffic. Spectators are advised to use mass transit. The MTA said the Long Island Rail Road is adding 29 stops in Westbury.
Officials had also said they planned to ramp up police presence at cricket watch parties as part of their security efforts. The FBI’s Nassau County office is assisting.
