Thirteen Dublin bus routes to change next month as part of BusConnects plan

New 24-hour routes and express services will begin from December 8. The E1 and E2 routes will now provide continuous access across major areas, including Bray, the city centre, Ballymun and Santry.

Route 19 is another significant new addition, running directly from the heart of the city centre to Dublin Airport.

The addition of Local (L) and Express (X) routes ensures residents in areas like Greystones, Newcastle and Blackrock can better connect to the city and nearby stations, without requiring multiple changes.

Major changes to routes 4, 11, and 13 are also on the way.

The following services will cease operation from Sunday, December 8: 46a, 46e, 63, 63a, 84, 84a, 84x, 143, 144, 145, 155, 184, and 185.
