Iarnród Éireann has reminded customers on the Limerick to Ballybrophy via Nenagh line that two weeks of track renewal works will take place.

These will start from this Saturday January 29 and run to Sunday February 13.

The works will see a further two miles of track renewed on the line which, combined with previous works, will facilitate journey time improvements during 2022.

As a result of these works, all services on the line will be replaced by bus transfers for these dates.

A spokesperson for Iaranrod Eireann confirmed how these will work.

They said: “Bus replacements will depart at scheduled train times.

“This is except for the 7.45am Nenagh to Limerick service, which will depart at the earlier time of 07.30am, serving Birdhill at 7.52am and Castleconnell at 8.05am.

“Iarnród Éireann apologises to customers for the inconvenience caused by these essential works.”
