Sadly, the driver of the van lost his life at the accident scene.
A technical examination of the scene was undertaken and the road, which is the main Limerick to Waterford road remained closed with local diversions in place causing an unavoidable huge build-up of traffic due to large vehicles attempting to traverse narrow roads.
