COMMUTERS across the country faced delays this morning after a collision was reported on the busy M50 motorway in Dublin.
Dublin’s M50 traffic near Blanchardstown was impacted by the sudden collision this morning.


The collision was reported at the J06 Blanchardstown Northbound slip to N3 North at 08:48am.
Transport Infrastructure Ireland said the incident was cleared swiftly after it was reported.
However, motorists may experience some road congestion due to the morning rush.
No other major incidents have been reported on Irish roads this morning, meaning most roads should be congestion-free.
TII also reported that there are “no delays currently” on the N40 or routes approaching Cork.
Meanwhile, Bus Eireann has experienced disruption to their services in the South East/Eastern region today.
Route 133 and 100X will be unable to serve the Townsend Street stop 341 due to construction works.
