Delays on DART line as lorry crashes into level crossing

Repair work has been taking place on the track this evening.

THERE HAVE BEEN delays on the DART line this evening after a lorry smashed into a level crossing in Sandymount.

This has led to services being delayed between Dún Laoghaire and Pearse Street DART stations.

This evening tickets for the service are being accepted by Dublin Bus.

A short while ago service on the line began to resume at reduced speed due to the damage caused to the level crossing by the truck.

Iarnród Éireann are saying this evening that services will stop again for around half an hour after the evening peak, which is thought will be around 7.30pm.

    He lost the unfair dismissals claim, he was awarded for working outside of hours and probably not getting his days off
