Dublin traffic LIVE: Roads moving well on first day without kids in school
It's the first week where the kids are not in school and already Dublin's roads are feeling the impact. While there is some congestion, it's relatively normal, with traffic moving well overall.
The M50 is slow southbound between Ballymun and Lucan but it's still moving well. The northbound side is flying along and only slows slightly at Lucan.
There was some debris on the N4 earlier but that seems to have been cleared. Busiest route heading into Dublin appears to be the N7, slowest around Rathcoole.

Airport chaos for Irish holidaymakers as all flights grounded in Turkey spot after raging wildfire breaks out
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Irish holidaymakers have been affected as a Turkish airport suspends all flights while fire crews tackle an out-of-control wildfire. Adnan Menderes Airport, serving the coastal city of Izmir, has halted all departures and arrivals. Aer Lingus Flight EI 799, scheduled to leave for dublin-airport>Dublin Airport at 10:20pm last night, was cancelled. A SunExpress Airlines flight to Dublin took off earlier in the day, before the wildfires began. Another flight from Dublin Airport, operated by SunExpress Airlines, was expected to land at Adnan Menderes Airport but was delayed by two and a half hours. Flights to Istanbul, London Stansted, Copenhagen in Denmark, Cologne in Germany and Sofia in Bulgaria are also affected. It remains unclear when normal operations will resume, reports the Irish Mirror. Some incoming flights have been redirected to nearby airports, according to Turkiye Today.

The fire erupted on the borders of Menderes and Seferihisar districts of Izmir yesterday. Photographs from the scene show towering flames as the fire spreads. Firefighters are battling the blaze from both the air and ground. Firefighting teams, including two planes, one helicopter, three water tenders, and a water supply vehicle from the Izmir Regional Directorate of Forestry, were dispatched to the area. They were also joined by the municipal fire brigade. (Image: Lokman Ilhan/Anadolu via Getty Images) The cause of the fire remains unknown at this stage. Turkish media reports indicate that 455 families were evacuated this weekend due to another wildfire which broke out on the outskirts of Izmir and quickly spread to the forest. Earlier this week, there were other fires in the area which disrupted travel, prompted evacuations, and triggered a broad emergency response.
