Gardaí and emergency services are currently attending the scene of a road traffic incident on the M6 Westbound at Russagh in Co. Offaly.
The road is closed between Junctions 5 and 6 with diversions in place.
Well folks it’s that time of year again if you could spare a few yo yo’s to the cause and yes you can poke fun at me but it will cost you a donation!
