Dublin Bus has eventually installed a bus shelter in Charlesland. Both the Town Council and myself have been pressing for one for well over 5 years. Charlesland, with 1550 homes, is the largest private estate in Ireland and has been occupied for 10 years. We need to encourage people to use public transport and there is something wrong with the system that this simple and inexpensive task takes so long.

Charlesland is also not on the list to receive a real time bus information sign. Such a large estate should have one and I have written to the transport authorities to get one.

Bus shelters are also needed in a number of other places in Greystones including Mill Road and Redford
