Due to the advice of the National Emergency Coordination Group our office will be closed tomorrow Thursday, 1st March 2018. We will, however, be working remotely and available on our usual office number and mobile numbers .

The public have been advised to remain indoors from 4pm tomorrow 1st March 2018 until 12noon on Friday, 2nd March 2018, when blizzard like conditions are due to hit Leinster and Munster - as a result of Storm Emma and the unprecedented 'Beast from the East'. This is the most extreme snow event to hit Ireland in 36 years.

Major travel disruption is expected, with all Dublin Bus and Bus Éireann services cancelled tomorrow, while Irish Rail are due to operate a skeleton service, with routes ceasing around lunchtime. Dublin Airport has advised the public to check with their airline.
