Privatisation may be just the ticket
And we have all been affected by the recent actions of CIÉ to try to stop this privatisation. As someone who uses public transport, I feel privatisation might not be so bad.
The provision of adequate public transport is vital. However, in Cork we still have an inadequate bus service and timetables. Our bus terminal is an embarrassment; all the rural bus routes are run from matchbox-like premises. The "helpful staff" and "friendly bus drivers" don't exactly attract one into using this service on a regular basis.
