The road has remained closed between the Headford Road Junction and the Black Box over the past five hours to allow Garda investigators to conduct a technical examination of the scene.

During that time, there's been no access to the road - including in or out of the car park.

Gardai expect the road to reopen around now, following the completion of the technical examination.
