It has been an interesting conversation. I thank Ms Graham and Mr. Creegan for their attendance and public service. Ms Graham made the point regarding Luas cross city that when College Green did not come into play, the NTA was forced to make changes. That is not really the case because it would have known of that months in advance of the opening of Luas cross city. The chaos caused by Luas cross-city prompted the NTA to make changes and redirect 30% of Dublin Bus routes. That is a more accurate description of what happened.
