Drivers face a week of traffic disruptions due to Lower Glanmire Road closure

DRIVERS in Cork city are facing a long week of traffic disruption, with multiple road closures planned between now and Sunday to facilitate improvements to the water pipe network.

Gardaí are encouraging motorists to take alternative routes where possible and allow extra time for journeys, with delays likely.

The lane reduction will be 24-hours a day for the next week so intending rail passengers will need to factor in extra time for their journey to Kent Station.
