Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

BusConnects: National Transport Authority (Resumed)

Ms Anne Graham:

We recognise the importance of orbital movements in particular. There are strong orbital movements throughout the ,city but when we considered it in respect of strategy, we believed that in 20 years those orbital travel demands could be met by the bus system rather than a light rail system. We will improve the level of service and the connections among the towns and urban villages on the west side of the city. We introduced the 175 service last year, which has been successful in connecting Citywest to University College Dublin and beyond, and we will see those services increase over the next few years.
