Try and avoid the area if at all possible

Drivers travelling to and from Tuam today are being warned to watch out after an incident has destroyed parts of the road.

It is understood what appears to be loose chipping and relatively big stones have been released onto the road by mistake making driving conditions extremely hard.

Eye witnesses have said that the debris mistakenly fell from the back of a lorry with several motorists and locals having reported the incident to gardai and the county council.

It’s not just Tuam Road either, there is also evidence of the droppings at the turn off for the Roscommon road as well as further up in Claregalway, according to drivers.

We will have further updates in our live blog below as we get them.
