All Northern and Maynooth Commuter services will operate to/from Dublin Connolly only

Irish Rail is urging passengers to double check timetables, especially in Dublin, before planning a journey this week.

It began works between Grand Canal Dock and Connolly Stations yesterday.

Stops in between those are closed, with some exceptions for Pearse Street listed on its website.

All Northern and Maynooth Commuter services will operate to/from Dublin Connolly only.

The only exceptions to these changes will be on New Year’s Eve from 11pm onwards: Line will be closed from Connolly to Pearse only, to facilitate those travelling home from city centre to southside locations on late night trains after Dublin’s NYE Festival events, and late night services for Maynooth and Kildare will be operating to/from Connolly on New Year's Eve.

Further information can be found here.
