    Just to let people know. Just came across a really bad fatal accident between Ferry Carraig and Oylgate . Traffic already really bad and road will be closed as there is an obvious fatality. If you know someone using the route that should diversion

    Just got a Map Alerter text from the council saying road closed until at least 10pm

    Haven't heard if there were many fatalities but thoughts with all involved, hate to hear of these things. Someone's loved one not coming home

    The junction coming up from Ferrycarrig towards Wexford Youths Pitch is a pileup waiting to happen.Kyle Cross is another lethal spot.

    An eyewitness report said the biker was speeding and lost control then hit the back of a car.

    RIP.

    If its 3-lane where this happened , it needs to be reduced to 2-lane just like Larkins Cross urgently .

    This.

    That junction, if someone is turning either left or right makes no practical sense.
    Added to that is people speeding up as they get out of the 60 zone and come onto the turning options quite blindly.

    RIP to the biker. Very sad to see
