Britain's Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will begin their first official trip to Ireland later.
Rolling road closures will be in effect over the next three days, as William and Kate visit several counties and meet President Michael D Higgins.
The British Royal couple has a busy schedule once their flight lands at Dublin airport this afternoon.
William and Kate are coming at a crucial time post Brexit, with the trip described as an opportunity to build a lasting friendship with the Irish people.
Today, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will visit Aras an Uachtarain, The Garden of Remembrance, Government Buildings and the Guinness Store House. From 2 to 4pm there will be traffic restrictions around the Garden of Remembrance.
From 3 – 5 there'll be diversions around Government Buildings at Merrion Square.
While from 6 to 9 this evening Market Street South and Bellevue in Dublin 8 will be closed to all traffic.
Tomorrow the couple visits community organisations in Temple Bar and Howth in Dublin, Prosperous in Kildare, and Grange in Meath.
On Thursday the trip ends with a visit to Galway and a local GAA club, but Gardaí insist the city centre remains open for business.
They say the public can expect temporary rolling road closures in the areas affected, and should leave extra time for their journeys.
