3 Military Road will remain open to all traffic travelling outbound towards St. John’s Road West only, subject to co-ordination of traffic movements with Gardaí.
4 Kilmainham Lane will be restricted to one-way traffic outbound only from 1pm each day during these events. Both road closures will be enforced by Gardaí.

One Direction Croke Park Restrictions
82,000 screaming fans (or at least 3/4 of those will be fans, the rest long suffering parents with weapons grade ear plugs) will descend on Croke Park and the area for three nights starting tomorrow and ending on Sunday, much to the relief of locals.
So what does that mean to traffic? Well it's bad news.
So what does that mean to traffic? Well it's bad news.
From 3 PM each day a Garda cordon will be in place at the junction of Lwr Drumcondra Rd and Clonliffe Rd, Fitzroy Ave and Whitworth Place.
There will be further closures on North Circular Rd at Gills Corner and Jones Rd and restrictions in place at Clonliffe Rd and Ballybough Rd.
The best advice, if you don't have to be in the area, don't go there. Ballymun Rd is often a much better option than the Swords Rd to get to the M50. Fairview and Amiens St will see extra volumes. The wider berth you can give the area, the happier you'll be.
If you are going to the concert. Please take public transport. It is a short walk to Croke Park from Connolly Station so you can take the Dart or the Luas to there. Below is an excellent breakdown on the public transport option to the event.
Tune into Live Drive on 103.2 Dublin City FM from 4 to 7 or keep an eye on our twitter feed @LiveDrive

Custom House Quay Contra Flow Bus Lane
From Wednesday morning, May 29th a Contra Flow Bus Lane will open on Custom House Quay which will join with the reinstated Eden Quay Contra Flow Bus Lane.
Below is a breakdown on the changes it will bring the Dublin Bus routes:
Routes 14, 15, 27/x, 33x, 142 & 151 will re route to the Contra Flow with effect from first bus on Wednesday May 29th ’14. Route 90 will remain as is at Georges Quay.
We expect this will cause significant delays for the first few days as traffic gets used to the changes and settles down to a new pattern.
Below is a breakdown on the changes it will bring the Dublin Bus routes:
What this means to drivers is that there will no longer be a right turn from Customs House Quay to Memorial Bridge. Drivers will have to turn left at Berseford Place and loop around behind the Customs House to access the bridge and the South Quays.
We expect this will cause significant delays for the first few days as traffic gets used to the changes and settles down to a new pattern.
