The northbound lane at Ballinteer. Dublin City Council

M50 "like a car park" after crash

One person said that they were in the same spot for an hour.

A MULTI-VEHICLE collision on the M50 has caused major delays on the motorway.

The five-vehicle collision happened just over an hour ago between Firhouse and Tallaght on the northbound side of the road.

All lanes were blocked, but have since reopened, as people head home for the bank holiday weekend.

No injuries have yet been reported, but the tailback stretches from junction 12 Firhouse to junction 16 Cherrywood and is having knock-on delays entering the motorway at those junctions.

Dublin Fire Brigade is urging motorists to be patient and they will get through.
