Bus Services in Counties Dublin, Kildare, Meath and Wicklow: Discussion
Gerry Horkan (Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source
Mr. Hann referred to 24-7 bus lanes, as opposed to bus services. There are the QBCs from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. that work and people know they cannot use them. Then there are the ones that are three hours in the morning and three in the afternoon or 4.30 p.m. to whenever. It applies equally to clearways. Whenever I see a clearway there are cars that are supposed to be gone by 3 p.m. and it is 3.45 p.m. and they are still parked. Is that the crux of the issue, more than having bus lanes at midnight? Is it more about the intermittent bus lanes that are a priority in the morning and the afternoon ones that are lost for four or five hours in the middle of the day? Is that the real crux of it or not?
