AA Roadwatch:

CORK: IRONMAN Ireland takes place in Youghal on Sun 23rd June. Approx. 10,000 people are expected to attend. Expect significant traffic disruption across East Cork over the weekend, with a number of road closures scheduled.

From 6am on Sat 22nd until 6pm on Mon 24th June, a section of Lighthouse Rd in Youghal (R643) will be closed between the Friar St jct and Moll Goggins Corner, near the turn-off for Front Strand.

Between 6:30am and 11:45pm on Sunday, the Lighthouse Rd closure will be extended to include Main St, Tallow St, and the Waterford Rd (R643) (as far as the N25 jct at the Rincrew R/A). Between the same times, the following routes in Youghal will also close: Dolphin Sq, Emmet Place, Ashe St, Windmill Hill, Golf Links Rd, O’Rahilly St and Nealon’s Quay.

From 6:30am until 2pm on Sunday, Upr Strand Rd (R634) will be closed between Moll Goggins Corner and the Ballymacoda turn-off (R633). During this time, the regional Ladysbridge/Youghal Rd (R633) will also be closed between the turn-off for Fr O’Neill’s GAA at Aghavine Cross, and its jct with Upr Strand Rd (R634).

From 7am until 3pm on Sunday, the Ladysbridge/Youghal Rd (R633) will also be closed between Aghavine Cross and the Ballymacoda turn-off. Road closures will be in place on the following routes during the same period: the local road through Ballymacoda Village; the Ladysbridge/Shanagarry Rd (R632) between Shanagarry itself and Garryvoe; and the Cloyne/Ballycotton Rd (R629), between Ballymaloe House and Shanagarry.

Between 7:30am and 4pm on Sunday, the Cloyne/Ballycotton Rd (R629) will close between Cloyne and Ballymaloe House. The following routes will also be closed during these times: the Whitegate/Midleton Rd (R630) between Ballinacurra and the Cloyne turn-off at Whitewell Cross; Ballick Rd and Broderick St in Midleton; Main St in Midleton, between Broderick St and Dungourney Rd/Connolly St; and the Dungourney Rd (R627) itself, between Main St and the Broomfield jct.

From 8am to 5pm on Sunday, the Midleton/Dungourney Rd (R627) will also be closed between the Broomfield jct and Dungourney itself.

A number of local roads will also be closed around East Cork on Sunday. The N25 will remain open all weekend, and can be used to avoid traffic disruption. Parking will be available at Youghal Rugby Club, where a shuttle bus will run to/from the swim and run centres. Leave plenty of extra time for your journey if you’re planning to travel in the region.
CORK: On Sat 22nd June, Cork take on Kerry in the Munster SFC final in Pairc Ui Chaoimh.

Throw-in is at 7pm.

As this is a final, a large crowd is expected. Páirc Uí Chaoimh is located on the southside of the River Lee, on Centre Park Rd, not far from the South City Link Rd. Road closures will be in place around the stadium before and after the match, including Monaghan Rd, Centre Park Rd and The Marina.

For patrons approaching from the Dublin direction, the best approach route would be via the Jack Lynch Tunnel. Patrons coming from Cork City, please follow Garda directions. Traffic delays are to be expected before and after the match.

Bus Éireann’s 202, 215 and 215A routes serve the stadium. Parking will not be available in the vicinity of the stadium. The Garda recommended drop-off point is a five-minute walk away, near Páirc Uí Rinn on Boreenmanna Rd. Irish Rail and Bus Éireann operate a regular service to Cork. Use public transport options where possible.

Overnight works will be in place on the N28 at the Shannonpark R/A from Mon 17th June until approx. Mon 1st July

(Dunno if this is the place for it...) One lane of St. Patrick's Quay is being closed off today - I believe for water pipe works - which I'd expect should add a nice bit of chaos to Penrose Quay, Michael Collins Bridge, Custom House St. etc.
