BE CAREFUL on the roads out there this morning as we have already had two reports of collisions on the M18 Galway/Limerick road.

Emergency services attended the scene on the northbound lane before junction 15 Crusheen where a vehicle struck a barrier.

According to AA Roadwatch, the crash has now been cleared.

Motorists also reported another incident on the M18 Galway Limerick road, which was also being attended by emergency services.
