If you use the M50 to get home from work, and were planning on getting home nice and early this evening, your plans may have been thwarted.
A two-car collision has taken up almost the entire road at the off-ramp on Junction 6 (Blanchardstown/N3) – and only the hard shoulder is currently accessible.

It wasn’t the only incident on the M50 today, as Gardaí were earlier on the scene of a single-vehicle collision on the motorway.
