Pic: Larry Cummins (COPY by reporter - CAITLÍN GRIFFIN Prince Charles and his wife Camilla will be visiting Co Waterford and Co Tipperary tomorrow and Friday as part of their Irish visit, the British embassy has confirmed. Today, they will arrive in Ireland which kicks off their three-day visit as part of a series of royal tours for Queen Elizabeth's Platinum Jubilee year. It follows a visit to Co Tyrone in recent days. Rolling traffic restrictions will be in place throughout the counties for the coming days as the royals visit the likes of the Rock of Cashel and Waterford city. It will be the British royals first official visit to both of the Munster counties since the pair began making official visits to Ireland in 2015, with their most recent visit being in 2019 when they met President Michael D Higgins in Co Wicklow. An Garda Siochánna has released a statement saying "traffic restrictions for the visit will be kept to the minimum required." "The public can expect temporary rolling road closures, to facilitate security escorts over the course of March 23-25. Any impact on the public will be localised and minimal."
