Waterford-bound traffic from the N24, the M9, and the N25 will be diverted to the city via the R448 Sallypark, with funeral traffic to be sent to Ferrybank via the R711.
Following the funeral Mass at 1pm, Breen will be buried in the adjoining cemetery.
Traffic restrictions will be in place during the proceedings, with the R711 regional road due to be closed between Slieverue and Ferrybank between 12.15pm and 3pm.
He is survived by his parents Ray and Jackie and sister Kellie. After his remains were brought back from Croatia to Ireland, they were laid in repose at his family home in Slieverue outside Waterford city on Monday.

Breen died following a test-driving crash last Thursday while preparing for the World Rally Championship’s Croatia Rally. His co-driver James Fulton was unharmed.
