Rain and breakdowns on the quays cause heavy traffic in Dublin city

The north quays are particularly bad.

THERE ARE VARIOUS traffic delays in Dublin city with rain in the capital and a number of breakdowns and collisions causing problems.

There is a breakdown on Church Street on the north inner city that is causing delays in the area and on the nearby north quays.

A second breakdown of a coach on Arran Quay has exacerbated the problem leading to a near standstill on the north quays towards the Four Courts.

 

Dublin City FM’s Live Drive is also reporting that both lanes are now blocked on Portland Row near the Five Lamps following an incident.

Emergency services are at the scene but traffic has been severely affected towards Amiens St and the Samuel Beckett Bridge.

AA Roadwatch reports that traffic is also busy eastbound along Grand Canal from Grove Road to Leeson Street.

Traffic on the M50 is currently moving well, however.

    OTOH, it’s just been shown that you can get 23 green thumbs for making up complete nonsense as long as it’s anti-Brit.

    Glen, that’s stating the obvious. Vice-presidents become president if the president dies in office. So what’s your point or do you have a conspiracy that you want to share?

    What I’m saying is ” obvious” to anyone who understands what the Bush family are like.
    Do try to keep up Declan if you are going to participate in the discussion.

    Bunch of BS cooked up by Bush and served by Hinckley. I’m just wondering if old George still has to make a balloon payment for services rendered.

    They wouldn’t consider releasing Hinckley if Sarah Brady had not died a few weeks ago. The timing of this is in poor taste.

    He had terrible aim, practically hit everything from 15 feet away except Reagan who I believe got hit by a ricochet. Pity.
