Nobody was injured in the first collision on that stretch but a male driver has received serious injuries in the second.

Diversions are in place at the Earl of Desmond roundabout, but Gardaí are advising motorists to avoid all unnecessary journeys, especially in the area, as conditions on the diversion are also icy.

Separately, the road between Deelis Bridge and Teeromoyla near Caherciveen will be closed for 3 hours after a one vehicle collision.
