Ms Anne Graham:

On the G spine, the delivery, and the 60 route which is associated with it; those services have been in place for two to three weeks at this stage. We will be continuing to do assessment on those services. We have already admitted that the running times are not sufficient and we need to do more with Dublin Bus on that issue. Mr. Gaston has already said that we will look to see, with Dublin City Council, if there is anything we can do to reduce the journey times. When we start a service, there is a period of hyper-care where we are checking it on a daily basis to see what improvements can be made. It is at that stage then that we assess whether there is any additional frequency or anything else that needs to be put in place based on the demand for those services.

We need a couple of more weeks of operation before we can see what kind of changes, if any, need to be made to those services.
