According to an Irish Rail spokesperson, there will be “revised times on all routes - one in particular due to major works.”
Those who frequent the Dun Laoghaire to Greystones route are warned that track and overhead works will be underway from Saturday, April 30 to Monday, May 2 and so there will be no trains operating for this time period.
Due to these works, customers are advised:
- DART services are suspended between Dun Laoghaire and Greystones. Rail tickets are valid on Dublin Bus and GoAhead services to/from areas affected. DART services are operating between Malahide/Howth and Dun Laoghaire.
- Dublin to Rosslare Europort Intercity: Dublin to Rosslare Europort services will operate with bus transfers between Dublin Connolly and Greystones
A statement released this morning read: “Iarnrod Eireann advises customers that a revised timetable will be in place this May Bank Holiday weekend on all routes.
“Customers are advised to check times before travelling from Saturday 30th April to Bank Holiday Monday 2nd May inclusive for revised schedules, at www.irishrail.ie or at the Iarnrod Eireann app.”
