Transport chiefs have promised to vanquish Dublin's "ghost" buses which are being caused by driver shortages and technical issues.
A bus service vanishing off Dublin Bus’ real-time information is a common occurrence in the capital. The phenomenon has been dubbed a ‘phantom’ or 'ghost' service by frustrated commuters left stranded at stops.
Chiefs from the National Transport Authority, Dublin Bus and Go-Ahead Ireland told TDs they are “working hard to fix” the software problems and bus driver shortages that are causing the disappearing services.
