Luas Green Line services have resumed following disruption due to power line issue

Green Line Luas services are operating as normal again in Dublin, after major disruption earlier on Saturday

A fault with the overhead lines forced the suspension of all services between 7:00 Saturday morning and 4:00 on Saturday afternoon.

The Luas operator has thanked passengers for their patience today - and has confirmed all Red and Green Line services are running as normal tonight.

The issue was identified by drivers on Saturday morning, prompting the total suspension of Green Line services.

Luas technicians were inspecting the overhead line and all tram pantographs, a statement on Saturday morning confirmed, adding the work would take "a number of hours" to complete.

Red Line services are operating as normal.

The transport provider apologised for the inconvenience caused and confirmed all valid Luas tickets will be accepted on Dublin Bus services while the disruption continues.

When the repair works are complete, Green Line services will recommence on a phased basis, resuming first between Brides Glen and St Stephen's Green, and then later between St Stephen's Green and Broombridge.
