The Luas Is Making A Welcome Return To Dublin This Morning

After a couple of days out of action because of Ophelia, the Luas is back on the streets of Dublin this morning.

Yesterday, it was announced that the service wouldn't be operating until today but at around 9pm last night, Luas released a statement indicating that both the red and green lines had already made an early return.
