Shipping Infrastructure Eire Director of Communications Seán O’Neill stated the M50 is tricky to reroute visitors from.
“Unfortunately, this particular section is the one section between the M2 and the M4 does not have a diversionary route,” he stated.
“So, we have to seek a multitude of different diversionary routes around that; the Gardaí do their best to mitigate that but because of its location … this is a particularly troublesome spot to say the least.”
