Free bus to link Dublin attractions
Eoin Burke Kennedy
A free shuttle bus service linking some of the capital’s main cultural attractions is to begin operating this week.
The Dublin Cultúr Bus, which will run on Sundays between 12 noon and 5pm until the end of September, is part of an initiative by the Department of Arts, Sport and Tourism to promote the city’s national cultural institutions.
The bus will serve Merrion Square (National Gallery of Ireland); Dame Street (Chester Beatty Library and Temple Bar); Market Street off Thomas Street (Guinness Storehouse); Military Road (Irish Museum of Modern Art); Wolfe Tone Quay (National Museum of Ireland, Collins Barracks); Parnell Square (Dublin City Gallery, the Hugh Lane; Dublin Writers’ Museum and the James Joyce Centre); Nassau Street (National Museum of Ireland); Trinity College (The Book of Kells and the new Science Gallery).
The service runs every 30 minutes and the first bus departs from the Merrion Square entrance of the National Gallery at noon.
The Department of Arts, Sport and Tourism is funding the service as part of a marketing programme which aims to make Sunday a culture day in Dublin.
The programme also aims to highlight several exhibitions and events taking place over the summer at these locations, including the Rembrandt Etchings at the Chester Beatty Library and the Impressionist Interiors at the National Gallery.
Minister of State with responsibility for the Office of Public Works and the Arts, Dr Martin Mansergh said: “A variety of events and exhibitions are planned for residents and visitors to explore in our capital throughout the summer.
“With free access to many of these exhibitions combined now with this free Sunday bus service, I would encourage people to enjoy all that our cultural heritage has to offer.”0
