Not good news for anyone trying to get around.

Luas have confirmed that all the stops between Ballaly and Brides Glen on the Green Line are out of action until tomorrow, due to a “power failure.”

The affected stops comprise roughly half of the entire route, and the issue has been causing problems for passengers since around midday today.

Until the stops are functioning again, there is an alternative bus service serving affected stops between Brides Glen and Balally.

In a statement issued on Saturday, Luas said: “A number of faults have been identified and it will therefore take time to rectify the service.

“It has been decided that normal service will not resume in the area until tomorrow morning, Sunday the 29 December, in order to allow our maintenance teams to resolve the issue as safely and in as timely a manner as possible.”

At the moment, Green Line services are only running between Broombridge and Balally, with a frequency of every 8-10 minutes.
