Perhaps not. Let us get 24-hour services and then have 24-hour bus lanes. The 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. lane on the N11 has worked quite effectively. Many people still do not drive in the bus lane after 7 p.m. anyway. The dual carriageway goes the whole way through what would have been my council area, from Belfield to Cabinteely church. People do not park in that bus lane and, by and large, they do not squat in it after 7 p.m. It is not unfair to say that if there are to be 24-hour bus lanes, there need to be 24-hour services on those corridors. What scope is there for 24-hour bus lanes? We have a huge problem with taxis as the night-time economy picks up. We will have more activity at night-time when licensing legislation changes. What ambitions do Dublin Bus and Mr. Owens have relating to 24-hour services?
