They are required to pay 6m euro towards the upgrade of Dunkettle Road, just under 1m euro towards the railway station, and intriguingly, operate a shuttle bus from Glanmire to the Dunkettle station...

I really like the Luas, and when I'm in Dublin I find excuses to use it. However it is the Louis Vitton of people carriers. This route is a total and utter waste of money. Think of how many buses...

I hope that they install the points Glounthaune for the branch to Midleton during this period, they already have a few hundred metres of track down on the new line near Glounthaune, so this would be...

Isn't this just last year's timetable, with the infuriatingly sparse service in the evenings?

I was surprised also last Sunday to see how few matchgoers used the train to go into the city. It seems...

I go along with what Eoin says in terms of creating a brand, when you see RATP you know you will get reliable convenient transport in Paris.
