Luas passengers are facing huge delays this morning after a power failure forced a large section of the Red Line to close.
The line is completely closed between the Red Cow and Saggart in both directions until further notice.
A statement on their website reads, ‘Luas customers please be advised services continue to be impacted by a power failure in the Tallaght/Saggart and Red Cow section of the line.
‘Luas tickets are valid on [Dublin Bus] together with a limited alternative bus serving all affected stops.’
The alternative bus transfer service is serving all stops affected by the failure, although it’s only running every 30 minutes.
⚠️Luas customers please be advised services continue to be impacted by a power failure in the Tallaght/Saggart and Red Cow section of the line. Luas tickets are valid on @dublinbusnews together with a limited alternative bus serving all affected stops.
