Infrastructure Minister Liz Kimmins is urging all spectators travelling to and from the Ulster Senior Football Championship final in Clones to take care on the roads and have a safe journey.
Speaking ahead of the game between Armagh and Monaghan, Minister Kimmins said:
“I am delighted to be attending this showpiece occasion.
“It will come as no surprise that I will be supporting Armagh, but I want to thank Ulster GAA, Ulster Ladies and the wider GAA family for their ongoing support of the Share the Road to Zero campaign.
“By doing so, they are playing their part in the societal conversation about road safety because it’s something we all have to think about, whether that be on an everyday journey or travelling to an exciting and special occasion like the Ulster Final.
“I would also appeal to all supporters travelling to and from Clones to take care and drive safely.
“Here’s to a great day out for all the fans, especially those supporting Armagh.”
