    Could I ask you a personal question? Why did you go to town yesterday? Could you have avoided making this trip yesterday? Anyone with half a brain knew yesterday that buses would be pulled sooner or later, If your bus dropped you in town at 3.30pm, he was the only driver still driving at that time.

    My luas dropped me into town at 3.30. I had to go to town to get home (I work in South County Dublin & live in North County Dublin where there is no dart station anywhere near me)

    From the last update to the Dublin Bus website:

    Due to the deteriorating conditions and in the interest of safety last departures outbound and inbound will leave at 20:00hrs on all services. Dublin Bus would encourage all customers to travel as early as possible. Both DART and Luas will honour Dublin Bus Tickets after 20:00hrs.

    I realise the conditions were awful. I just feel that DB didn't do enough to inform the passengers of this change, it was done very sudden :(

    So sudden that some drivers like me were left sitting on their bus for up to 7 hours waiting for gritters to come round and make the roads passable. We didnt all just nip back to the garage if that makes you feel any better and also some buses didnt get back to their garages at all. Drivers had to go out this morning and bring them in.

    I'm up in Nortwood in Santry, stayed at home today (can work remotely) Looking out the window I can see around 150 - 200meters ahead...

    In terms of people saying that workers are using it as an excuse. If you went into town early in the morning yesterday for work and were planning to go home on the bus in the evening lots of people were stranded as a result, only option would be to walk or get a hotel, hence I imagine people don't want to go through that again today.

    My luas dropped me into town at 3.30. I had to go to town to get home (I work in South County Dublin & live in North County Dublin where there is no dart station anywhere near me)

    Fair enough, you were quite unlucky, while you were siting on the luas the roads deteriated badly. When buses began running again between 4 and 7pm did no bus come for you then? How did you get home at all?

    Point I was trying to make was people were ignoring the weather warnings and going into town for stupid reasons that were not essential, thus adding to the mayhem.

    No buses were running. I abandoned that plan, got the aircoach to the airport (which took hours upon hours) and during this time I booked a hotel and thankfully got the shuttle bus from the airport. Absolute mayhe,.

    I know what you mean! my problem is I catch a bus into town at 6.30 and the DB website isn't updated until I get into town so I don't know what to do tomorrow :( I believed only the main DB routes were running between that time and I don't think any routes were going near me. I had no choice but to go with the hotel route, an expense I couldn't really afford :eek:

    Freezing Fog has just started to get very very nasty in North Dublin 15, absolutely freezing out there, the coldest I've ever known it to be and visability is atrocious.

    I've seen a facebook for Irishrail, and Bus Eireann. At least they have a back up if their main site is down.

    Buses grounded from 8pm tonight I've heard.

    Tis true. From http://www.dublinbus.ie/

    Dublin Bus are currently operating services on all corridors with restrictions in suburban residential and industrial estates. Difficulties are being experienced with the freezing conditions and in conjunction with the Local Authorities every effort is being made to maintain services through the afternoon and evening peak.

    Due to the deteriorating conditions and in the interest of safety last departures outbound and inbound will leave at 20:00hrs on all services. Dublin Bus would encourage all customers to travel as early as possible. Both DART and Luas will honour Dublin Bus Tickets after 20:00hrs.

    I was told the Dublin Bus twitter is bogus and not official. Is that bebo yours as it doesn't seem to have many "friends"?

    What are the chances that the buses will be running in the morning? With freezing fog and temps of -10 it doesn't look likely.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 492 ✭✭one2one


    Someone sent me that link yesterday. Doesn't look real tbh. I'll be sticking with dublinbus.ie for my answers anyways.

    It annoys me that there are no updates for the first bus, I need to catch a bus around 6.30am and the updates won't happen till after 7 :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,194 ✭✭✭Little Miss Cutie


    The dublin bus website says that a full service with curtailments will operate tomorrow. List of curtailments is on the site - think they are similar to today


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 492 ✭✭one2one


    Phone the garage and ask them, they will be open before 7.

    What about the train from Clondalkin/Fonthill station on the Fonthill Road? It's a bit of a walk but you could try it.

    Quite a few people from the Neilstown, Bawnogue, Clondalkin and Fonthill areas were using the station last night.

    Train times at http://www.irishrail.ie/your_journey/printed_timetable_pdfs/2010/Dublin%20Portlaoise%2010.pdf

    mite have to try that in the mrn if buses not back on track, but that only take me to heuston, then get luas to Abbey and then bus (or walk) out to Rathmines, hopefully busses back 2mro!!
