This morning/afternoon.
Leeson Street, Dublin 2
Ken Corbett, a bus driver for 30 year, speaks to fellow Dublin Bus drivers gathered in front of the Department of Transport before handing in a letter of concern over the National Transport Authority’s (NTA) Bus Connects plan.
It propose drivers receive a 6.5pc pay rise over the next three years, as well as a further 1pc retrospective payment. In return, drivers will need to sign up to roster and shift changes and give up their premium payments for Sundays and bank holidays.

€429 for working a bank holiday…..can see them giving that up alright….!!
Magnificent Siegfried and Roy gruaig.
Don’t know how bus drivers do it. Putting up with the constant road gridlock, angry passengers, pissy car drivers. Fair play to them, I wouldn’t do it for all the money going.
About time. Holding the public to ransom for years.
Government holds us to ranson, but they award themselves regular pay rises.
Good luck to the bus drivers.
Fully support this action…
