Services resume on Luas red line after crash in Dublin 1

Luas red line services have resumed after an “incident” at Mayor Square in Dublin 1 led to their partial suspension on Friday evening.

“All red line services are operating normally,” Transdev, the light rail network operator, said in a post on social media.

The disruption which led to services ceasing between Connolly and The Point was caused by a crash between a tram and a car, The Irish Times understands.

In a statement at 7pm, Luas operator Transdev said services were disrupted following an “incident at Mayor Square”. The company apologised “for any inconvenience caused”.
