The 153rd Open championship returns to the North Coast this week.
The PSNI are urging anyone travelling to The Open today to take extra care on the roads.
Around 270,000 golf fans are expected to descend on the North Coast during the eight days of practice and competitive play of the 153rd Open championship.
The first day of practice began yesterday (Sunday). The four day championship begins on Thursday, July 17.
Issuing advice to road users this morning, a PSNI spokesperson said: "We are advising road users to be mindful of the change in weather this morning here in Portrush, with more rain on the forecast.
"If you are travelling to The Open today, please take extra care on the roads, as road surfaces are very slippery due to excess water.
"Reduce your speed and give more vulnerable road users such as cyclists and motorcyclists more room than usual, and don’t take any risks when overtaking.
"Please also be reminded of the transport options available to you via our partners at Translink, with bus and rail options running again today.
"Remember to take your time and exercise caution. We want everyone to arrive here safely to enjoy their day."
