Overall, the BusConnects proposal envisages the provision of about 230 kilometres of bus lanes on sixteen of the busiest bus corridors in Dublin, which we refer to as “Radial Core Bus Corridors.”

Our intention is to develop these bus corridors so that each will have continuous bus priority – in other words, a continuous bus lane in each direction, along with segregated cycle lanes where practicable.

The proposals in the Core Bus Corridors Project will improve bus journey times for passengers in Dublin, the proposals which if implemented will provide the following:

• 230 km of continuous bus priority over 16 radial core bus corridors.
• 200 km of cycle tracks and cycle lanes provided on the corridors.
• Journey time savings of up to 40%-50% across the 16 radial core bus corridors.

By providing a high-quality, frequent and reliable bus service, we can make Dublin a more attractive place to live, work and visit. With quicker journeys and reliable services, the city will seem like a smaller, more accessible place and everywhere will be within an easy bus ride of just about anywhere else.

All of Dublin – all of its colleges, offices, retail streets; all of its coffee shops; all of its pubs and bookshops; all of its restaurants and theatres; all of its character – will be opened up, to all of its citizens and all of its visitors.
