Transdev shared in a written statement: “Following an assessment of the George’s Dock Bridge, which was recently damaged in a fire, the bridge has been found to be structurally compromised.

This programme shows completion of works at the end of November this year, and Luas Red Line services will remain suspended between Connolly and The Point until that time. We thank all passengers for their patience and cooperation during this period.”
