An Garda Síochána                       LIAM MILLER TRIBUTE MATCH                          Traffic Operation Order

   1.      RATONALE

   The Garda Traffic Management Plan is designed to attempt to address the current infrastructural deficits
   with the location of the Stadium. Páirc Uí Chaoimh is bounded by the river Lee on the Northern side and
   the Atlantic Pond which prevents vehicular access from its Eastern side. The stadium is bordered on the
   other two sides by residential and commercial areas. There is inadequate parking around the venue for a
   capacity crowd. The vast majority of the crowd is expected to approach from the City (Western) side and
   the remainder from Boreenmanna Road on the Southern side. The match egress will also coincide with
   Tuesday evening rush hour traffic.

   The Traffic Management Plan will depend on the successful implementation of three key media
   message strategies.
        1. Convincing the vast majority of match goers to walk to the grounds from Cork City centre.
        2. Convince members of the public to take the shuttle Bus from Lapps Quay to the grounds
        3. Conveying the message to people in the City or planning to travel through Cork City to be gone
           by 4.45pm that Tuesday.

   The success of the Traffic Management Plan is heavily dependent of the success of the Media Plan.

   The message has to be conveyed to all that there is no vehicular access to Centre Park Road, The
   Marina, Maryville and Monahan’s Road for the day. Though this is not entirely correct as there will be a
   1-way system maintained down Centre Park Road across the Link Road and out Monahan’s Road to
   facilitate residents, local businesses, sporting groups, and disabled match ticket holders).

   2.      MEDIA MESSAGE
