Luas Red Line Temporary Partial Closure
Passengers are advised that significant service changes will be in place on the Luas Red Line over the next days, from Saturday 17 October first tram to Sunday 18 October 2026 last tram, due to essential engineering works being carried out by Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII).
For the duration of the works there will be a replacement bus service between Tallaght / Saggart and Heuston Luas Stop, and a Luas service from Heuston to The Point on Saturday 17 and Sunday 18 October 2026
These works are essential to the operation of the Luas system and ensure we deliver a safe, reliable tram service to Luas customers. The workers, vehicles and machinery will generate noise at times.
Replacement Bus Stop Locations
A replacement bus service will serve the affected Luas stops between Heuston and Tallaght / Saggart in both directions.
Buses will run approximately every 15 minutes on Saturday 17 and Sunday 18 October 2026. A valid Luas ticket, TFI Leap Card, or Public Services Card with Free Travel is required to use the replacement bus service.
