Traffic disruption is expected around Cardiff and Newport during rush hour on Friday as the Nato summit draws to a close.
Police said the M4 may be affected as the summit wrapped up, but it will not be closed.
Temporary parking restrictions will be in place near Cardiff Airport to help manage the flow of traffic as world leaders leave.
Meanwhile security fences in Cardiff city centre are being taken down.
People are advised to use public transport where possible in a bid to avoid increase congestion on the roads.
Arriva Trains Wales said extra capacity and services between Cardiff and Newport would be running to help deal with increased demand.
The western approach to Cardiff Airport from Llantwit Major will be periodically closed on Friday, but access is still available via the Cardiff and Barry route.
Parking and waiting will be prohibited on Rhoose Road and on unnamed roads from Porthkerry Road to Porthkerry village in the Vale of Glamorgan to prevent traffic hold-ups.
An extra 100 staff have been on duty during the summit to run a temporary terminal built specifically to handle the Nato traffic, which has included many heads of government.
