A man in his twenties died after his motorcycle was involved in a single-vehicle traffic collision between Junctions 9 and 10 on Cork’s N40 South Ring Road eastbound at 10.10am on Saturday, December 9th. He was pronounced dead at the scene and his body was moved to Cork University Hospital where a postmortem is due to take place.
