There is no overall total available in relation to the numbers of commuters who claimed tax relief on annual travel cards in 2009. However, figures supplied by the main public transport providers (Irish Rail, Dublin Bus, Bus Éireann and Luas) show that the number of annual Travel Passes they provided numbered approximately 29,212 in 2009.
