    river road flooded again so all the traffic will be heading your route. might not be flooded but traffic will be shit as diversions will be in place.

    Take a night off and have a few mars bars watching cornation street. gowan!


    edit: N3 is also closed from blanch to castleknock

    M50 southbound from Finglas junction also down to one lane now.

    Your probably gone and all Degsy but your best bet would be to head down the m50 southbound and get off at Blanch. The n3 is only closed from the roundabout at total fitness to Blanch Shopping Centre, so you can get through.

    Came down by the Strawberry beds at about 4.30 this evevning and at one part just after the Metal footbridge there was what looked like a muddy river flowing down from the hillside across the road and into the liffy looks like there could be serious flooding on the beds if this rain keeps up.

    Just got back via the m50.
    It took 40 minutes from the castleknock roundabout to the finglas exit.
    The road is flooded halfway up and although they're clearing it,traffic heading north is crawling.
    Traffic heading south is backed up from the blanch exit all the way back to the finglas exit.Avoid that part of the m50 for the moment.
    On the way in i took the back road from cappagh hopsital,thats flooded but WAS passable..i dont know what its like now,water seems to be pouring upwards from a burst drain or something.
    The ballycoolin diversion again was just about passable but the car was spluttering like a mo'fo' going through.
    N2 seemed quiet enough,i think anybody with sense was at home!
