Is that actively in progress? If the Luas, DART, commuter rail, mainline rail, Dublin Bus and Bus Éireann are to be integrated, surely something as basic as painting them all the same colour would be a start. However, Irish Rail has rebranded over the past three years at a cost and Bus Éireann has recently rebranded at a cost. The Leap card was introduced with another new name foisted on us at a cost. Every time there is a will to inject cash into one of the public transport services, a rebranding happens and that is not in keeping with what the NTA is trying to achieve, which is a single brand entity for transport Ireland. On top of that, there are the DART, CIE International Tours, etc.
