Fares should be the same. Maybe the driver made a mistake?

Wow, finally it might cost less than 60€ to get from naas to UCD every week...

Service is quite frequent so I’ve noticed but none of them are to schedule as of yet anyways.

Anybody know if Go Ahead have any plans for a real time app?

May have been posted in the thread before but do Bus Eireann still have the small depot behind toughers ?

No the NTA won't allow it and even if they were it wouldn't be worth their while if they were allowed.

there is a link to the fare chart also

3.85 equates to a 19-20 stage fare

5.39 is 27-30 stages


so looks like an error


not sure what would have happened if it was inspected

So the Go-Ahead 120 service starts on the 19th of Janurary now. Got a quick look inside the 130 bus while waiting for a bus at Connoly station and it looked very modern.

Haven’t any complaints since the first day hiccups. Much more frequent service than Bus Eireann

So I have herd complaints about the new 120 Go-Ahead bus service. There has been some buses that did not turn up and one I was waiting for was 30 minutes late. Also the timetable is not very clear. What it says at the stop is different to what is on the online timetable for some stops. The buses only going two thirds of the way instead of the whole journey is another really annoying thing and needs to be fixed.

Any recent update on the 126? How is it of late going from Dublin city to Naas? I'm looking to get off at Toughers estate. Do any other routes service this commute?

From looking at the Go-Ahead twitter the past few weeks, it seems that a *lot* of commuter services, mainly on the 120/126, are being cancelled daily due to "operational issues". Would anyone know what the issue is? I'm guessing that they are having issues with drivers currently

A lot of drivers out with Covid and on annual leave.
