After more than six weeks of delays and disruption, the WB Yeats Irish Ferries ship is scheduled to arrive in Dublin Port from Holyhead this morning.

Ferry services to and from Holyhead Port are expected to get back up and running this morning. The Welsh port has been out of action since damage was caused to terminals during Storm Darragh. Aidan Delaney has this report: "After more than six weeks of delays and disruption, the WB Yeats Irish Ferries ship is scheduled to arrive in Dublin Port from Holyhead this morning.

Terminals 3 and 5 were badly damaged by high winds during Storm Darragh in early December with the latter terminal back operating on a temporary basis. It's expected the reopening will alleviate some of the pressure on hauliers on both sides of the Irish Sea who have been trying to work around the closure during one of the busiest times of the year for transport.

The Irish Ferries website is warning passengers their sailings are leaving earlier than normally scheduled and will do so for the next few days. Meanwhile Stena Line is due to operate as normal with four ships travelling from Dublin to Holyhead throughout the day.
