The road was closed to allow for a technical examination of the scene to be conducted by forensic collision investigators but has since reopened.
Gardaí are appealing for any witnesses to this collision to come forward. They are particularly appealing to those with camera footage, including dash-cam footage, from the area at the time to make it available to them.
