The Gardai make the following appeal to all patrons attending the game.
N.B. MAJOR ROAD WORKS ARE IN PROGRESS THROUGHOUT THE REGION AND ALL MOTORISTS ARE URGED TO ALLOW EXTRA TIME FOR YOUR JOURNEY.
Traffic Arrangements.
1. Car parks will be available on all approach routes and must be used by all patrons on their particular route thus avoiding unnecessary delays after the match.
2. Arrive in Thurles in good time for the matches.
3. Co-operate with the car park attendants and Gardai to ensure free flow of traffic.
4. The area about Semple Stadium will be kept completely free of parked
vehicles and controlled by Garda Barriers.
5. The housing estates at the rear of Semple Stadium form an emergency route and any vehicles not belonging to residents will be towed, without exception.
6. Please do not abandon cars on the main routes. Keep driving until you meet Gardai on duty at relevant car parks. If you must park on the road ensure your car is turned for home, this is to ensure the minimum of delay after the matches.
7. A traffic diversion programme will be in place within Thurles and all motorists are asked to be patient during its operation. Every effort will be made to ensure that motorists can transgress the town with a minimum of delay.
Galway Supporters.

Illegally Parked Vehicles.
16. Vehicles found illegally parked will be towed away to the Garda Compound and will not be released until the statutory expenses
(€ 113.50) have been paid. In addition a prosecution could be
