 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 first concert will also coincide with
 Friday evening rush hour traffic.

 The Traffic Management Plan will depend on the successful implementation of two key media message
 strategies.
      1. Convincing the vast majority of concert goers to walk to the grounds from Cork City centre.
      2. Conveying to regular commuting traffic not attending the event to avoid all approach routes
         around the grounds in the lead up to each concert.

 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 weekend. 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 concert ticket holders).

 2.      MEDIA MESSAGE
