New bus stops
March 12th, 2008
Our new bus stops are being installed this week (poles today, flags tomorrow we expect). I hope you agree that they look really great. We’ll have timetables up on them by the weekend.
The stops are made and installed by a company called Trueform who did the work very quickly and efficiently. They’re the first stops of this type to be installed in the Republic of Ireland. (It was disappointing that someone stole their ladder from the van, parked at the hotel - if anyone sees it, let us know). Atkins Global provided transport engineering services. Fingal Co. Council Transport Department helped us sort out all the relevant permits. Paul from Eirebus was out to check on progress today and took the photo. Éanna sorted out the graphics.
Update: over the weekend, we put timetables and information on the stops. It would be great to get feedback on the layout of information on these.

Ahh well done! The bus stops look fantastic, there the best type of bus stop around. Its nice to see a private bus company putting some money back in to stuff like that.

Can you please explain to me why your fare is increasing by 33% upto €4 per fare.
CPI (Inflation) currently stands at 4.8% so the cost of living surely isnt the cause.
The price of Oil is at an alltime high as of Feburary but as we all know the effects of the price of oil NEVER hits the consumer for at least 6 months after as oil is bought in bulk and stored for at least 6 months and therefore any increase in price will hit consumer 6-9 months later
Your bus currently has I would guess 60 seats per bus, your increase means you will pocket an extra €40 euro per journey. Are you seriously telling us that the costs to your company have increased by 40 euro per 25 minute journey? Are you planning on serving meals on the journey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
33% is simply greed and unacceptable.
Can you please explain why??
