Please note the match throw-in times: 1pm and 3.30pm as they may cause Garda traffic restrictions to be implemented inside the cordon.

Vehicle movement through the Garda cordon will be restricted during this exit period to ensure the safety of pedestrians and vehicles alike. These road closures will be implemented for the shortest time necessary. As a guideline, this cordon will be in place for approx.90 minutes on Sunday after the Dublin V Tyrone match ends.
