On the 3rd October, 2007, my Department issued a licence in accordance with the Road Transport Act, 1932 to a private bus operator for bus passenger services between Swords and Custom House Quay, via The Port Tunnel.
It is a condition of the licence that the services are in operation in their entirety within 4 months from the date of issue of the licence. While it is a matter for the operator concerned to introduce the services within the timeframe, my Department understands that the operator proposes to commence operations within a matter of weeks.
