A Dublin Bus route that was launched earlier this year will be expanded from next weekend.
Route L14 will be expanded to Cherrywood via Shankill from Sunday June 15th. The L14 will now connect Southern Cross, Bray, Palermo, Shankhill, Loughlinstown, Laughanstown and Cherrywood, including Green Line Luas.
The enhancement nearly doubles the coverage area of the bus route which was rolled out as part of Phase 6A of BusConnects in January. The extension will deliver a bus service for residents in the area of Laughanstown, supporting the area's rapid growth and the ongoing development of new homes.
The route will continue to operate every half an hour seven days a week, offering 35 return services Monday to Friday. The service will also continue to operate 32 return services on Saturdays, with 30 return services on Sundays and public holidays, ensuring enhanced transport connections for both weekdays and weekends.
Jeremy Ryan, Director of Public Transport Services at the National Transport Authority, said: 'Building on the success of the initial launch of the L14 under Phase 6A of BusConnects in January, we've taken on board valuable customer feedback highlighting the need for stronger onward connectivity.
"In response, we're pleased to announce that Route L14 will now extend to serve Cherrywood, Shankill, and connect with the Luas Green Line – making the serviced more accessible and convenient for our passengers.'
