HELLO THERE. A very good morning to you and welcome to Tuesday’s commuting liveblog.
We’ll be with you until after 9am as another working day gets underway.
Stick with us for all the latest traffic, travel and weather updates from across the country.
Morning, folks. Spotted anything on your commute? You can get me on catherine@thejournal.ie or tweet me @Chealy_. (Not while driving, obviously.)
Here’s what the weather looks like on this fine Tuesday:
Traffic is already picking up on Dublin‘s South Circular Road:
The M50 also looks busy around Lucan:
And be careful if you’re approaching Anglesea Road:
In other transport news, Siptu and Luas management are meeting at the Workplace Relations Commission today ahead a planned driver strike on St Patrick’s Day.
The union yesterday welcomed Transdev’s decision not to go ahead with a planned private bus service for passengers on Thursday. A breakthrough? We’ll have to wait and see.

Looking to catch up on this morning’s top stories? We’ve got them all here:
Meanwhile, in Cork, traffic is also heavy:

And Limerick:
And there are reports now of a collision on Silverspring Hill in Cork:
On the M50 at Tallaght, cars as far as the eye can stretch…
If you’re sick of being stuck in traffic but feeling pushed out of Dublin and other cities, you’re not alone. A new report published today shows rents are continuing to sharply rise despite the two-year cap placed on rental increases by landlords last December.
If you’re coming through Glasnevin:
Not too far away, the Navan Road is busy outbound after a crash:
Bad news if you’re taking the N40. Expect delays:
Watch out for a breakdown on the N3:
That’s all from me, guys. It’s been a relatively calm morning traffic-wise. Drive safely and come back to us here tomorrow morning for more commuting updates.
