Phase 1– 45A, 75, 63 & 59 The NTA has given Go-Ahead Ireland an indicative date for switchover of services as Sunday 7th October 2018. Go-Ahead Ireland, in conjunction with the NTA, is aiming to have all timetables on their joint digital platforms (websites, twitter etc.) well in advance of implemention . However, the following is a route by route guide to any changes made to the above routes.45A /45B Daytime frequency enhanced to every 20 minutes, and every 30 minutes each evening and Sunday daytimes. Existing journeys diverting via Shanganagh Cliffs Estate are numbered 45B to distinguish them from the standard route, but apart from this the route is the same as the 45A.59 Departure times between Dun Laoghaire and Dalkey and vice versa have been coordinated with service 111 where possible to offer more evenly spaced departures along these roads. The route stays the same and there are no route variations.63 Weekday daytime frequency remains every 30 minutes with first and last bus times broadly similar but enhanced to every 30 minutes each evening and Sunday daytimes.75 Existing journeys via Sandyford Business Park will remain and be augmented at peak periods. These enhance the number of peak journeys between Dundrum and Tallaght. The route is changed in Dundrum to now serve Main Street, Taney Road and Sydenham Road to allow for better travel opportunities with connections on to the Luas green line. The timetable has been coordinated with the route 175 between Dundrum and Tallaght to offer more evenly spread departures throughout the day. First and last journey times are similar and additional Sunday morning and evening journeys will be introduced.Phase 2 – 111, 184 & 185 These services launch on Sunday, 21st October 2018.111 On Mondays to Saturdays there are earlier trips from Dun Laoghaire towards Brides Glen to allow for better connections to the Luas green line. A brand new Sunday service is being introduced to offer an hourly frequency, with the first journey from Brides Glen leaving at 09:33 and the final journey leaving at 23:33. Departure times between Dun Laoghaire and Dalkey and vice versa have been coordinated with service 59 where possible to offer more evenly spaced departures along these roads. The route stays the same and there are no route variations.184 The timetable has been designed to connect with revised DART services at Greystones to and from Newtownmountkennedy. The first and last journeys are broadly similar but the Mondays to Fridays evening frequency increases to every 30 minutes. On Saturdays and Sundays, there will be many extra journeys operating every 30 minutes, compared to current service provision of every hour on Saturdays and 2 hours on Sundays.185 Significant improvements have been made to make the timetable easier to understand. Each day, there will be departures every 30 minutes from Bray DART station to Palermo Estate, with one of these continuing every hour to Powerscourt via Enniskerry. First and last journey times are similar to the current service except there earlier journeys on Sunday mornings.
