ALERT: Caution advised on Kilkenny road as ESB line almost down

Motorists are advised to drive with caution on the Kilmoganny-Windgap Road approaching Kildrummy where an ESB pole is loose and blocking the road.

Meanwhile, Kilkenny County Council have advised that the R703 Graignamanagh to Thomastown Road has been closed at Columbkille. This is due to a fallen tree. 

Local homes have also been impacted by the storm with hundreds of customers currently without power across Kilkenny as Storm Bram continues to make its way across the country.

The N25 (including the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Bridge), is also closed from the Glenmore Roundabout to the junction with the R733 until wind speeds drop.

The Cuffesgrange area is the worst impacted with 231 customers affected. Kilkenny Live understands the estimated restore time is 10pm. - MORE DETAILS OF OUTAGES HERE
