Poll: Should there be a ban on using free bus passes during rush hour?
THE TOP CIVIL servant in the Department of Public Expenditure of Reform has floated the idea of a potential ban on using free bus passes on public transport during rush hour.
Secretary general Robert Watt said that a debate needs to be had on how infrastructure, including public transport, is “priced” and “used”, the Irish Independent reported this morning.
Such a measure would create more space for workers and commuters on packed public transport. Any such move, however, would likely be fiercely resisted by pass holders, including the over-66s.
So, today we’re asking you: Should there be a ban on using free bus passes during rush hour?
