Why not use the old road that runs parallel to the main road? There is an entry point across from pickardstown and also one before the halfway house just beyond Robins Hill.

Not sure if your being sarcastic..

The halfway house pub, on the waterford to tramore road. Where tawdy do be and across from the old petrol station.

Robins Hill where the speed van does be on the tramore road. Its where there is a slight hill as you leave tramore and there is a bridge to the left.

Is this the rally we are talking about ?? What time is road open ? Or should we not leave our houses what with marathon on as well ?

The rally wont cause anywhere near the traffic disruption the marathon did. Great to see so many out cheering on the runners today, hopefully even more will be out to see the rally tomorrow
