Buses serving the west Tallaght area are to be terminated at The Square from 6pm each evening beginning today.
Notice was served to members of the NBRU last night that the drastic move is being taken following a meeting of Dublin Bus, gardai and representatives from the Tallaght community. It was related to the ongoing anti-social behaviour that has been plaguing the routes for years but has escalated in recent weeks.
The move has been taken to ensure the safety of drivers and passengers with the union citing an "escalation of attacks on our members". The routes affected are the 27, 77a and 65B while the 56A will be diverted. The 65 will remain unchanged due to its infrequent service.
