Bus Éireann
Dail Éireann — 2024-02-01
============================================================

Eamon Ryan (GP), Dublin Bay South

The Deputy is absolutely correct: the bus service in Cork has to become more dependable. That requires new investment in drivers, as well as new buses and facilities. It also requires us to improve the conditions in which buses operate so that those drivers are not stuck in traffic. That is my key point. Delivery for the likes of BusConnects corridors is frustratingly slow, but it is the right way to go and we should work collectively to see how we could accelerate that because, ultimately, that is the best solution for those people the Deputy has cited who want a better bus service.
