Preliminary list of Bus Routes cutback or eliminated Details are becoming available on the depth of the severe cutbacks in our public transport service from Dublin Bus. So far, the cancellations affecting Donnybrook Garage are:
The cutbacks for Saturday and Sunday are just as bad, but unfortunately these could not be copied down in time. A departure refers to a journey from either terminus on a bus route. So the loss of 2 departures would be the entire run from one end to the other and back again. At a time when the Greens in the government are trying to get 100,000 people out of their cars, these cutbacks are clearly ludicrous. What will happen is that initially the demand will still be there and with this huge loss of service, buses will be completely full and passengers will be left standing at the stops. This of course will force them to find alternative means of getting to work or whatever, and will cause more cars to appear on the roads and of course a fall in passenger numbers. The loss of revenue for the reduced passenger service due to this degraded service will then in turn force another round of cuts and will spiral downwards. No doubt when that happens, that will be the moment, that the government will try once again to privatise the service. Please add further information on cutbacks to other routes in the comments section and this table can be updated later |
