Bus Éireann is reminding customers to take some time to plan their journeys and to please check the Bus Eireann website where a list of service disruptions is available, and their Twitter feed.
Yesterday Bus Éireann experienced minor disruption as a result of Covid-related absences across its 17 depots, but with the vast majority of services being delivered. A similar situation is expected today.
A statement said Bus Éireann’s team “is working agilely on a daily basis to manage absences and to prioritise delivery of services which minimise customer disruption” and
“Bus Éireann has robust Covid-19 mitigation measures in place, including having hand sanitising units available on-board and in stations, having touchpoint cleaning during the day and deep cleaning of buses overnight, as well as reminders to leave windows open. We also remind passengers to wear masks throughout their journey and in bus stations”.
