People are being urged to plan their travel well this weekend with a host of road closures and restrictions in place in Dublin as Pope Francis arrives in the city.
Additional services have been put in place across all public transport networks and the advice is to leave the car at home.
Over 50 roads will be closed with parking suspended on many busy streets. Gardaí have warned that any car left on certain roads will be towed away to a safe storage area.
The full list of Dublin City Centre road closures is available here.
After a meeting with President Michael D Higgins at Áras an Uachtaráin this morning, the Pontiff will head to Dublin Castle for a State reception with the Taoseach Leo Varadkar.
He will then head on to Dublin Castle, where he will make his first public speech of the trip, before heading on to St Mary’s Pro Cathedral.
The Popemobile will leave Marlborough Street onto Cathal Brugha Street at around 4:15pm.
Turning on to O'Connell Street, the mobile will cross the River Liffey and travel down Westmoreland Street, past College Green and then continue up Dame Street.
The Pope will pass Dublin Castle and City Hall - continuing up Lord Edward Street, High Street and Bridge Street - crossing back over the Liffey up Church Street, before turning onto Bow Street and into the Capuchin Centre.
