Road closure on Bruckless Road to remain into Tuesday morning after serious accident

"We are aware the road in question would usually see HGV traffic early morning and so we wish to advise drivers of these types of vehicles to please avoid the area altogether and to travel via Ardara as the diversion route is quite narrow," An Garda Siochana said.

A serious traffic accident took place on Monday evening and the road was promptly closed as a result

"We are aware that the road in question would usually see HGV traffic early in the morning time and so we wish to advise drivers of these types of vehicles to please avoid the area altogether and to travel via Ardara as the diversion route is quite narrow," An Garda Siochana said.
