The RPA and Veoila have put in place a very reasonable arrangement at Abbey Street to handle the temporary terminus. The advertising of the close has been good as well
The vast majority of Luas passengers are not effected
We should of course remember that under the original plans the Luas terminus was to be outside Easons on Abbey Street so we should be thankful that it even got to Connolly

Jesus you sound like the minister for transport. Actually no. You sound like you accept the situation. The concept of being "thankfull" is what has transport in this country screwed up. Thats why Government and muppets like the RPA get away with it. So what if the vast majority of users aren't affected. The linkage between train stations is broken, during the tourist season, when and based on my on site (do you like that? Its one of your lines.) investigations
its busier than usual. Neither would I forget the hard working paddies who use it to connect between modes. The work may be defensible in engineering terms, but in planning and customer service terms its plain rediculous and a prime example of how joined up thinking is still sadly lacking in this country.
