Fire crews from Wicklow attended the scene of single vehicle collision at a roundabout on the outskirts of Bray last night, which resulted in the car coming to rest in the centre of the roundabout.
There were no fatalities reported and reports that the vehicle had caught fire were unfounded.
In a statement, Wicklow County Council said: “Bray and Greystones fire crews were mobilised to an RTC (road traffic collision) at the Kilcroney roundabout off the N11 at 9:50 pm on Monday, August 18.

“A single car was involved which came to rest on its side against trees in the centre of the roundabout. The two occupants of the vehicle had managed to get themselves out of the car. Initial reports of a fire were incorrect, there was some steam and smoke from the brakes.
“The Kilcroney slip road from the N11 was closed temporarily and traffic restrictions put in place in order to safely deal with the incident and to assist the recovery contractor in removing the vehicle. Gardaí attended the scene.”
