Appeal to GAA fans regarding parking near Cork's Páirc Uí Rinn stadium

The Lord Mayor of Cork has pleaded with GAA fans to respect residents and to park responsibly around the city’s Páirc Uí Rinn stadium, which is hosting a major championship game tonight.

Cork Constitution RFC has also agreed to open its adjoining grounds at Temple Hill for paid parking ahead of the 7pm senior hurling qualifier clash between Cork and Dublin.

The grounds, which will be open from 5pm, can accommodate up to 700 cars, with motorists being charged €5 for parking. Gardaí will also be directing and encouraging fans who require parking to use the site.
