The introduction of 'bus gates' in Dublin is expected to improve travel times through the city centre. From August, only public transport will be allowed to pass through 'bus gates' located on Bachelors Walk and Aston Quay. This measure aims to reduce congestion and encourage people to use public transport.
The introduction of ‘ bus gates ’ in Dublin should “improve travel times ” through the city centre, a leading expert on transport has said.
“The reason behind it is because they know that that’s the part of the city that is a bit of a pinch point when it comes to expediting buses through the city and to improve the travel time for them.”Professor Caulfield said the idea behind the plan is to encourage people to take public transport, thus reducing congestion in the city centre.
Opponents of the plan fear it will make it incredibly difficult for people to travel through the city centre and Professor Caulfield conceded Dublin lacks the public transport infrastructure many capitals take for granted.
