10 DART stations will close next month to facilitate line improvement works.
The works will take place over three days, and Tara Street, Dublin Pearse, Grand Canal Dock, Lansdowne Road, Sandymount, Sydney Parade, Booterstown, Blackrock, Seapoint and Salthill and Monkstown will be closed.

For people who would have hoped to use this route on the impacted dates, Irish Rail said that TFI Leap cards can be used on all TFI public transport services in the affected area.
