Traffic Disruptions Are Expected To Be Severe In The City Centre This Weekend

Major traffic disruptions are expected to take place in the city centre this weekend due to Luas Cross City works necessitating the closure of O’Connell Street Bridge.

The latest phase of the tramline installation will cause restrictions in the city centre from 8pm, Friday night to 6am, Tuesday morning.

Dublin’s north and south quays will be closed to eastbound and westbound traffic at O’Connell Bridge to allow for the construction.

Here are the diversions that will be in place.
