Bus Connects Hub

Your bus network is growing, that means more services during evening weekends and at night.

The new BusConnects network

The new network follows from three rounds of public consultation which concluded in 2020.

Once operational it will improve the existing Transport for Ireland (TFI) network by providing enhanced bus services with high frequency spines and new local, orbital and radial routes. This new network is being rolled out on a phased basis over the coming years.

The first phase commenced in North East Dublin in June 2021 (Spine H).

The next phase involved services in West Dublin and East Kildare and launched in November 2021 (Spine C).

Phase 3 involved services in North Dublin and launched in May 2022 (Northern Orbitals).

Phase 4 (Spine G) involved services in the West of Dublin and was launched in October 2022.

Phase 5 involved services in South Dublin and launched in November 2023 (Southern Orbitals).

Some of the many benefits of BusConnects include:

Increased capacity and frequency
Increased evening and weekend services
New sustainable, low emissions bus fleet
New bus stops and shelters
New park and ride facilities
230Km of priority bus lanes to make journeys faster and reliable
