Dublin Bus fares to increase next year

Dublin Bus fares are set to increase in the New Year, it was announced today.

The head of the National Transport Authority (NTA) said that fares will rise to compensate for the loss of a Government subsidy and a drop in passenger numbers.

It comes as the company launches a new service today to allow members of the public to check the actual arrival time of the next bus at their stop.

Chief Executive of the NTA Gerry Murphy said times are challenging - and fares have to be looked at.

However, he added, "our objective with fare increases is to keep them at a level that still keeps people on the buses."
