Bus Transfers are currently operating between Cork and Cobh due to a truck damaging a overbridge at Tivoli.

This website will be updated as further information is made available.

Iarnród Éireann apologises for any inconvenience caused.

As per usual, Cork/Midleton does not seem to exist. I can confirm Cork - Midleton services are affected as well.

Silversprings is between Kent and Little Island, so Midleton will be affected. Unusually, that must be an overbridge that has been hit.

@deckie Hi, a crane is on site to assist in removing the truck. We hope to have cleared soon. Will update asap.

That they say Silversprings suggests it is this one: https://maps.google.ie/maps?q=Silver.... 36,,0,14.82 Otherwise they would have said the skew bridge.
