Athlone to Moate ... Flooding an issue?

Scramble · 2009-12-02 14:35:18

Hi- I know someone who's wondering whether there is any issue travelling between Athlone and Moate due to the recent flooding? I gather that from Dublin to Athlone is fine, but are there any issues locally? Any info appreciated.

a few of the side roads in Athlone are still flooded, and outside the army barracks. But that diversion is signposted.
The main M6/N6 between athlone and moate is fine
