\nIarnr\u00f3d \u00c9ireann said Leap cards can be used on other TFI services<\/p>\n
Iarnr\u00f3d \u00c9ireann has warned commuters to expect major disruption to northside DART, northern commuter and Enterprise rail services this morning.<\/p>\n
The company said there are no DART services from Malahide and Howth to Clontarf Road, or northern commuter services from Howth Junction to Connolly.<\/p>\n
There will be a bus transfer service from Connolly to Drogheda for Enterprise train services to Belfast.<\/p>\n
Iarnr\u00f3d \u00c9ireann’s Head of Corporate Communications Barry Kenny said the disruption is due to repair works after overhead lines in the Raheny area were damaged.<\/p>\n
He said people who can make alternative travel arrangements would be advised to do so, adding that up to 20,000 commuters could be impacted by the disruption.<\/p>\n
\nIarnr\u00f3d \u00c9ireann said Leap cards can be used on other TFI services<\/p>\n
Speaking on RT\u00c9’s Morning Ireland, he said the company was “very confident” services would be resolved before a Katy Perry concert in Malahide this evening, adding: “We are hoping to be back around lunchtime.”<\/p>\n
Mr Kenny said repair works were delayed last night as thousands of people were at a Teddy Swims concert in Malahide.<\/p>\n
Watch: Repair works under way after overhead lines damaged<\/p>\n

“I think it was the right decision to defer the start of the repair works, which would have shut the entire line.<\/p>\n
“So we had one track open to get those people home from Malahide.<\/p>\n
“I think potentially we would have had public safety issues if we weren’t able to clear and help move thousands of people from Malahide after the concert last night.”<\/p>\n
He explained that the damage occurred to the lines in the Raheny area last night at around 8.30pm.<\/p>\n

\nMalahide train station was empty this morning<\/p>\n
Iarnr\u00f3d \u00c9ireann is still trying to determine the cause of the damage.<\/p>\n
The company said that Leap cards can be used on other Transport for Ireland services, subject to available capacity.<\/p>\n
