Ormeau Road runs through both Nationalist and Loyalist areas and communal friction was common during the annual Marching Season. In the 1990s clashes would occur in the vicinity of the Ormeau Bridge with the Nationalists of the Lower Ormeau Road attempting to stop Orange Order feeder parades originating in the Ballynafeigh Loyalist enclaves from making their way towards the city centre along the Lower Ormeau Road.
