Mr O'Connell died in a paragliding accident recently in Spain.
A traffic management plan will be in place today from 10:30am until 1:30pm at The Curragh, Co. Kildare and at St. Conleth’s Cemetery, Newbridge to facilitate the military funeral of Acting Sergeant Major Declan O’Connell.
Requiem Mass will take place at 11am in St. Brigid’s Church, The Curragh, with burial afterwards at St. Conleth’s Cemetery, Newbridge.
This will result in the intermittent disruption to traffic wishing to access the Curragh Military Camp and the Athgarvan Road area of Newbridge.
Local diversions will be in place and managed by local Gardaí.
