Gardaí have confirmed a man in his late twenties has died in a single vehicle collision just North of Barnesmore Gap at around 11.15 last night.
It happened at Cashelnavene, 8 kilometres south of Ballybofey. The man was the sole occupant of a van which collided with a vacant house. The man was pronounced dead at the scene, and his remains have been removed to Letterkenny University Hospital.
Traffic is being diverted via The Dergline, and HGV’s should divert through Glenties.
Serious traffic congestion is being reported on the Derg Line, with people being advised to avoid the area if possible. Gardai are warning of poor conditions on the diversion route due to ice, saying motorists should drive with care, and expect delays.
