BREAKING: Emergency services and gardaí attend multi-vehicle crash in Kilkenny
The collision occurred on the N25 Waterford to New Ross road in South Kilkenny
A road traffic collision involving two vehicles has occurred on the N25 in South Kilkenny this morning, March 5, 2026.
Gardaí and emergency services attended the scene following the incident.
Details about injuries or the cause of the collision have not yet been confirmed.
Motorists in the area may experience delays.
The N25 has been the scene of a number of collisions in recent years.
The road has also been the focus of community concern, with campaigners describing the route as dangerous and calling for safety improvements.
The speed limit on a section of the road between Luffany Roundabout and the Ballinclare junction was recently reduced from 100km/h to 80km/h.
A static speed safety camera was also installed on the route near Glenmore as part of the Gardaí’s “Safety Cameras Save Lives” initiative aimed at reducing speeding and improving road safety.
Local campaign groups welcomed the changes but said further upgrades to the road are still needed, with structural improvements to the route expected to take several years.
