Luas services operational again after Gardaí looked into 'potential threat'

By Cillian Sherlock, PA

Luas services are operational again after An Garda Síochána said they received a phone call in relation to a potential threat to the tram service.

All Luas trams were stopped at the nearest Luas stop and passengers were evacuated in the interests of public safety.

An Garda Síochána worked with Luas staff to search all operational trams.

They said nothing of concern was found and the Luas has returned to full operation.

Earlier in the day, the Luas service said: “Passengers please be advised that there are currently no Red or Green Line services operating, we will update passengers in due course.

“We apologise for any inconvenience caused.”.
