The N80 has re-opened between Killeigh and Mountmellick following a lengthy closure yesterday, July 18.

A crash on the road left an ESB pole lying in the way of traffic, prompting gardaí to close the road for a time.

It re-opened once ESB and Council staff had secured the area.

Gardaí also said there was an oil spill and caution is still advised in the area.

An ambulance attended the scene but it is understood no injuries were reported.
