Sligo - Dublin line to be policed to combat antisocial behaviour today

The Sligo to Dublin line has been included as one of eight routes that Gardaí will be patrolling to combat anti-social behaviour today.

The day of action will be carried out by multiple agencies today.

In a statement released this morning, Gardaí say that along with Iarnrod Eireann, Luas operators Transdev Ireland and the National Transport Authority, a day of action will be carried out across multiple transport routes around the country today.

Operation Twin Tracks aims to police and combat anti-social behaviour, which has been on the rise on public transport around the country in recent months.

Other train routes included in Operation Twin Tracks include Ballyhaunis to Westport, Galway to Gort, Newbridge to Carlow, Bray to Rosslare, Limerick to Carrick on Suir, and Charleville to Midleton.

Luas red and green lines and DART routes in Dublin will also be patrolled today.

Local Crime Prevention Officers and Community Policing Gardaí will also be present in Pearse Street, Connolly and Heuston stations, and a number of regional stations to engage with commuters and provide guidance on crime prevention.
