Rabo Direct Final Traffic Info

It's a big day for Ulster and Leinster fans tomorrow, and with the big day comes some big delays.

These delays will be compounded by the Just 4 kids Show in the RDS on Saturday and Sunday

What you can expect are long delays on the Grand Canal inbound, on all approach roads to the RDS. Merrion Rd, Shelbourne Rd and Pembroke Rd. Anglesea Rd will also be affected as will Beaver Row.

If you are travelling the best idea is to take public transport. But if you are driving, the South Circular Rd tends to move better to get down to the Baggot St area.

Don;t forget Londonbridge Rd and bath Ave are closed.
