Screw the residents. I'm sorry, I live in a so called residential area which is well outside the city boundary and I put up with hundreds of vehicles a day passing by my house to reach a shopping centre. Those people live in the city of Dublin and cannot be protected from such awful things as buses! If you want a quiet life then don't live in a city centre (and Drumcondra would be considered city centre everwhere else!). As for theno right turn, change it. The city council can change these things. As LCP says, we have to make tough decisions and start giving real priority to buses, not a 100 yds of buslane here followed by a 15min standstill shared with cars. Cars have to be inconvenienced, not buses.
