"The man in his 80s was struck near the Dart station on Station Road shortly before 6pm. The road currently remains closed pending an examination by Forensic Collision Investigators. Inspectors for Go Ahead Ireland are also currently on site, where the bus remains in situ."
"Huge changes to the layout of what was once a haphazard and often chaotic interchange at the rail station, were made only six months ago, with the launch of the €3.5m Bray Dart Interchange Project last September. One of the principal aims of the project was to realign the bus services at the station, upgrade pedestrian and cycling facilities with new widened footpaths and install several pedestrian crossings."
"Road users and pedestrians who may have camera footage, including dash-cam, and were in the area between 5:40pm and 6:10pm, are asked to make it available to investigating gardaí. Anyone with information is asked to contact Bray Garda Station on (01) 666 5300, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111, or any Garda Station."

The collision occurred near or on a pedestrian crossing in front of the Carlisle Grounds. Station Road remains closed pending examination by Forensic Collision Investigators, with the bus remaining at the scene. Go Ahead Ireland confirmed involvement of one of their vehicles and stated full cooperation with authorities. The incident occurred six months after the €3.5m Bray Dart Interchange Project upgraded pedestrian facilities and crossings.
