COMPETITION * Ireland - Dublin Bus to be told to axe routes due to Luas double-up
Dublin,Ireland -The Irish Independent, by Laura Noonan -January 7, 2008: -- The Government is poised to tell Dublin Bus it needs to "redeploy" some of its fleet after passengers have deserted the service in favour of the Luas... Moving the bus routes is potentially the most controversial of nine issues the Department of Transport will "take up with" CIE in the coming weeks... The bus company has lost millions of passengers since the introduction of the light rail system... The issue is on a list, drawn up after a group of consultants examined whether the Government got "value for money" for the massive subsidies it pays to the CIE group...
