Disruption to some Dublin rail services

PAMELA DUNCAN

TRANSPORT: THERE WILL be some disruption to rail services as a result of the Queen’s upcoming visit. These follow a request from the Garda for security reasons.

Although all routes will operate, there will be some suspension of services between Connolly and Pearse stations on Wednesday, May 18th between 10.45am and 11.15am; 2.30pm and 3pm; and 3pm and 4pm; and on Thursday, May 19th, between 5.30pm and 6.15pm; and 7.45pm and 8.15pm.

During these times, northside services will operate between Howth and Malahide and between Drogheda and Connolly station, while southside services will operate from Bray and Greystones to and from Pearse station. There will also be delays to Maynooth line services on May 18th: trains will operate to a full schedule but will not stop at Drumcondra station between 10.30am and 4pm.

An Iarnród Éireann spokesman said all other services would operate normally, with minor delays possible. As a result of the Europa League Final, Lansdowne Road station will be closed from 5pm to 8pm next Wednesday. Customers are advised to travel to and from Grand Canal Dock station or Sandymount station during this time. Otherwise, normal match arrangements will apply.
