The new BusConnects network
The new network follows from three rounds of public consultation which concluded in 2020. Once operational it will improve the existing Transport for Ireland (TFI) network by providing enhanced bus services with high frequency spines and new local, orbital and radial routes. This new network is being rolled out on a phased basis over the coming years. The first phase commenced in NortheastDublin in June 2021 (Spine H). The next phase involves services in West Dublin and East Kildare from areas such as Maynooth, Leixlip, Celbridge, Lucan, Liffey Valley and Palmerstown towards the City centre and Sandymount (Spine C).
Some of the many benefits of BusConnects include:
1. Increased capacity and frequency
2. Increased evening and weekend services
3. New sustainable, low emissions bus fleet
4. New bus stops and shelters
5. New park and ride facilities
6. 230Km of priority bus lanes to make journeys faster and reliable
