Doors open for the event at 2 p.m., so traffic is likely to pick up at around 1 p.m. It begins at 6 p.m. and police believe it will end at around 9 p.m., with congestion expected to be particularly heavy at those times.

No specific road closures have yet been announced, but are forthcoming. Police said the closures will be brief, and will likely last 15 to 20 minutes.

"The safety of attendees and our residents is always our top priority," police shared in a statement. "Please use patience, follow signs and any instructions from any traffic personnel working this event."

The event marks Trump's first appearance in the five-county Philadelphia suburban area this campaign cycle, though he was in Reading just last week.
