Mr. Garret Doocey:

I will highlight three aspects in relation to that. I will take Cork as the example. There are fixes that can be put in, like timetable fixes and reliability fixes like putting an extra bus on a route to try to pick up and address punctuality issues. That is one element that has been introduced in Cork. A second element is small fixes in terms of potential adjustments that can be made to parking, traffic flow and traffic arrangements by the local authority. There were suggestions put to the local authority in Cork city. I know a number of them were implemented as well - not all - but a number were. Third, I again highlight the benefits. We have spoken about BusConnects. BusConnects at its heart is about increasing the frequency of services, expanding the network and, importantly, providing infrastructure that sits alongside that which guarantees reliability. Reliability is at the heart of people's trust in the public transport system. If we do not get the reliability right, people will not use the system. That is BusConnects and core bus corridors.
