    Centrelink - the latest innovative service from Dublin Bus

    Centrelink: Dublin Bus Def. - "to link, to connect, to join, to merge and to meet"

    From Wednesday 8th December Dublin Bus will start its latest innovative customer focused service - CENTRELINK. This service is the quickest way to get across the city:

    * Linking the St. Stephen’s Green and Tallaght Luas lines
    * Linking the city from North to South and South to North
    * Linking Business and Shopping, Leisure and Entertainment from Morning till Night
    * Catch the 10 or 46A at the specially designated CENTRELINK BUS STOPS, and travel between St. Stephen’s Green and Parnell Square or link in with St. Stephen’s Green Luas Terminus and Abbey St. Luas for just 45 cent.
    * This 45c fare (or any Dublin Bus prepaid ticket) is valid all day every day and with a combined frequency of a bus every 4 minutes – this is a service that cannot be beaten on value or delivery. So watch out for the special CENTRELINK signs and bus stops.
    Speaking about this new service Grainne Mackin, Communications Manager for Dublin Bus said, “Dublin Bus have launched a number of services in recent weeks all of which are aimed at making public transport and commuting seamless, less hassle and value for money. By highlighting the existing bus routes of the 10 and 46A we are effectively linking the Luas lines and for very little cost. We continually listen to our customers and we always endeavor to meet their needs.

    Centrelink Bus Stops are located going from the Southside of the city to the Northside:

    * St. Stephen’s Green
    * Dawson St.
    * Suffolk St.
    * Westmoreland St.
    * O’Connell St.

    And from the Northside to the Southside:

    * Parnell Square
    * O’Connell St.
    * D’Olier St.
    * Nassau St.
    * Kildare St.
    * St. Stephen’s Green
