Traffic volumes are expected to skyrocket this weekend, as nationwide bus strikes disrupt the travel plans of up to 850,000 people. More people are expected to use their bikes and private vehicles to get around.

Traffic in Dublin city centre is becoming steadily heavier, according to AA Roadwatch.

Last-ditch talks to avert the strikes failed last night. Bus chiefs have announced their intention to pursue legal action against unions, in an attempt to recoup some of the financial losses.
