The access route for news media to the Art Gallery inter-agency briefing has changed.
Media must now access the Art Gallery through the cordon at the Bealey Avenue/Montreal Street corner.
Montreal Street is now operating as a two-way thoroughfare.
If travelling by vehicle, travel south along Montreal Street, around Cranmer Square, turn right into Armagh Street, then left into Park Terrace.
Access to the Art Gallery is then on foot via Gloucester Street.
Vehicles may park along Park Terrace if there is sufficient space. If there is not sufficient space, vehicles will have to be parked outside the cordon.
Please see attached map.
