    Hi there,
    Does anyone know if both routes are passable now after the bad snow?

    Wicklow Gap should be OK, it's usually gritted, and has more traffic than the Sally Gap as well. Sally Gap is a different matter, and is probably still quite icy in places. A few spots where it's sheltered by trees can be icy long after the rest of it's clear.

    Can sometimes be quite foggy right at the top, well low cloud rather than fog really, but usually only for a short distance.

    Thanks! Will drive easy tomorrow, might still save some time anyway than going the M50 as traffic is really getting bad all the way redcow.
