BusConnects Dublin is a transformative programme of investment in the existing bus system, providing better bus services to more people. It is the biggest ever investment in our bus system in the history of the State.

It is currently planned to commence routes E1, E2, L1, L2, L3, L12, L14, L15, X1 and X2 by Quarter 3 this year. This is subject to funding and resource availability and detailed checks on operational readiness being completed in the coming months. In addition, the NTA are examining improved proposals for the operation of routes L1, L2 and L3 in advance of the roll-out of these services.
