    A lot of talk about ghost buses lately and I’d well believe it. My bus is timetabled to go every 20 mins yet in the evening I’m actually convinced only every second bus goes ahead at times and never on time.

    I’m nearly convinced too that it’s intentional by the drivers.

    I fully believe politicians (and their families) should have to use public services without exception and can not buy their way into better services, as well as an actual anti corruption unit that would investigate the politicians properly.

    I guarantee so many of our problems would be fixed within a few short years. Buses would be run on time, houses built, health care waiting lists drastically reduced etc, the list goes on.

    That goes out of the executive’s pockets right…right?

    Yes, fining is definitely the answer! That will definitely help make public transport better! 🤦‍♂️

    Seems silly. Who suffers/benefits? It’s not like the top brass in CIE take a hit to their pay.. Feels like a neoliberal idea of creating a “market” for transport services.

    *… result of their failure to meet minimum performance standards.*

  7. It’s frustrating because the person now waiting 30 mins because a bus didn’t show up (as an example), doesn’t get any benefit here. You have to suffer poor performance regardless and fines don’t improve anything

    Weird way to inform already strapped and inconvenienced passengers that fare increases are on the way.

    Or maybe there is a pot of “Do not open unless fines are imposed” money tidied away somewhere.

    I’m not convinced fining Bus Éireann will achieve very much except damaging bus services – it’s a public body ffs.

    Has to be a more impactful way of making them pay attention than just fines.

    All I see happening with this is they’ll find millions of cost savings and fare hikes.

    They need better regulatory tools.
