Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 27 September 2023
49. Deputy Peadar Tóibín asked the Minister for Transport how many Bus Éireann and Dublin Bus services have failed to arrive over the past year; if he will detail the top-ten worst Bus Éireann and Dublin Bus routes for dropped routes; and how many runs were dropped in percentage terms on each of these routes. [41690/23]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport; however, I am not involved in the day-to-day operations of public transport.
The question raised by the deputy in relation to how many Bus Éireann and Dublin Bus services have failed to arrive over the past year; if he will detail the top-ten worst Bus Éireann and Dublin Bus routes for dropped routes; and how many runs were dropped in percentage terms on each of these routes, is an operational matter for Bus Éireann and Dublin Bus.
I have, therefore, referred the Deputy's question to the companies for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
