UPDATE 8:30AM

Irish Rail and Dublin Bus are warning there's going to be extensive disruption to their services today as a result of the Bus Éireann dispute.

Picketing means no services can be guaranteed on Dublin Commuter trains.

All DARTs are cancelled except the 7am Malahide to Bray service.

There are also cancellations on many Intercity rail routes and Dublin Bus routes around the capital.

Workers are demonstrating solidarity with their Bus Éireann colleagues whose all-out strike over cuts has entered its eight day.

The Bus Eireann row is now entering its 8th day with no sign of a resolution.

Irish Rail says it can't guarantee any services across DART and Dublin Commuter trains.

There are also cancellations expected on Intercity routes.
