There has been a huge jump in reports of anti-social behaviour on the Luas since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, Dublin Live can reveal.
Dublin Live previously reported a woman was left traumatised after she was "kicked and abused" by a group of teenagers on the Luas with many feeling generally unsafe. It comes as the Government is trying to get more people onto public transport and away from cars.
Despite far fewer people using public transport due to Covid-19 lockdowns, the number of complaints around anti-social behaviour almost doubled during the Covid-19 years. In 2018 and 2019, there were 970 and 975 respective complaints.
