On the road to nowhere: City bus routes in the spotlight
Pat Dromey, director of transport services with Limerick City Council, said the current situation cannot continue whereby bus lanes are being put in place in the suburbs by Limerick County Council only for city councillors to block them in the city.
For the past three years Limerick County Council, in response to the Government’s policy Transport 21, has provided two bus lanes on the main transport arteries in the suburban areas at a cost of €4.5 million. The county authority has allocated a further €5m for bus lanes.
