Jump To Comment: 1 2Meeting on cuts to Dublin Bus services
A public meeting will be held next Wed in the Unite union hall on Abbey St to oppose proposed cuts to the citys bus services. Among the speakers are Journalist Fintan OToole, Broadcaster and environmentalist Ducan Stewart, and Trinity professor and author of "Gridlock" James Wickham. The meeting is organised by the Busworkers Action Group, a rank and file group of Dublin Bus drivers.
It starts at 730 and will is aimed at uniting transport users, workers, environmentalists and climate change activists to oppose the withdrawel of 120 buses in the city. Similar plans in Bus Eireann will see more than 200 buses mothballed.The group have already organised protests outside transport minister Dempseys office and the head office of the Green Party in Dublin.Over 290 staff will lose their jobs in Dublin Bus even as the Govt and its Green Party minister unveiled plans under its "smart Travel" policy to get 120,000 people out of cars and onto public transport and bikes .
Green ministers have been largely silent on this attack on public transport, while their transport spokesperson has attacked the breaks given to bus drivers as the source of all the problems!
Persumely they hope to meet their Co2 targets with a continuing recession, as it wont be by getting people out of cars on to buses!
