Two people have been killed in a road traffic collision on the N7 Naas Road at Citywest.
The two were two young males who were travelling in the same car. Their car collided with another car, which was being driven by an off duty garda, who is in a serious condition in Tallaght Hospital. The incident happened at about 6am this morning.
Gardaí say the section of the N7 southbound between the Saggart and Grangecastle exits will be closed for most of the day. Traffic is being diverted through Saggart and Rathcoole.
The Garda Síochana Ombudsman Commission (GSOC) is investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident. This incident has been referred to GSOC by the Garda Commissioner under section 102 of the Garda Síochána Act, 2005.
Anyone who may have any information that could be of assistance to the investigation are asked to contact the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission at 1890 600 800.0 -
Also seen this today, rather shocking if it is true :eek:
http://www.breakingnews.ie/ireland/mhojkfmheyey/
More than 2,500 gardaí have not completed the "required driver training course" for the force.
The Department of Justice has admitted that one fifth of members must be given special dispensation by supervisors to drive Garda vehicles.
The findings came about after Fine Gael TD Damien English raised questions about the number of gardaí qualified to drive official Garda cars.0 -

I haven't seen this mentioned on the DB site but since Friday the 77 has been travelling a different way.
From Jobstown it leaves the terminus, turns at the first roundabout and instead of going up the Jobstown Road, Russell Square, Brookfield Road, Cheeverstown Road, Cookstown Road and left on to the N81 up to the Square it travels back down the Fortunestown Road towards the Jobstown House and turns left onto the N81 up the the Square.
It's the same change coming back from the City.
According to the drivers I've asked this is because the work on the Cheeverstown Road/Cookstown Road has made it to difficult to navigate in a bus.
Hopefully this is of help to someone.0 -
Is the terminus still at the old terminus or is it further back along the route? That a lot of people inconvenienced.0

The 8:48 Clonsilla to Docklands didn't appear this morning so I got the 8:58 to Connolly (I boarded at Coolmine). Gawd it was horrible. I got to read my paper until Castleknock when the surge of people behind me left me with my face planted into the yellow grab rail.
I rang Clonsilla when I got to work and they said that it left at 9:15. It was unable to turn back (after coming from Docklands) because the points were stuck.
Of course, there were no announcements to those of us standing freezing on the platform :mad:0 -

Hi all
After arriving to Pearse station last week to find it closed, I realised -once again- it was a real pity I didn't check the Irish Rail site every bloody time I take a train!
I access an RSS reader a couple of times a day to check on headlines etc from my favourite sites and I thought it might be handy if you could get an RSS feed for Irish Rail travel alerts. Rather than hold my breath, I have created my own one which pulls info from the Irish Rail site:
[HTML]http://feeds.feedburner.com/IrishRailsNewsAlerts[/HTML]
If anyone who uses rss feeds would like to give it a try and let me know how they get on I would appreciate the feedback.0
