Major works in Connolly Pearse area weekend of November 7th 2009?

That afternoon Gorey to Maynooth service that was showing up for the 7th November 2009 has now been removed from the online timetable.

Looks like all set for disruption for the 7th and 8th of November allright.

Still no mention though of bus transfers between Connolly and Bray for Gorey/Rosslare passengers?

Done some digging, there are major engineering works planned for Pearse Station on November 7th and 8th

It appears to be related to the works ongoing behind platform 1

Interesting that for Gorey/Rosslare passengers the trains will terminate at Bray on the 7th and the 8th.

Even more interesting that there is no mention of bus substitutions to connolly on those dates and that the only option is DART to Grand Canal Dock and probable Dublin bus onwards.

Have seen a notice on this at tara street tonight.

More or less what the notice states

- no services between connolly and grand canal dock
- tara street and pearse open for ticket purchases and customer service
-northside DARTs to and from Connolly only
-southside DARTs to and fromgrand canal dock only
-bus shuttle city centre to grand canal dock
-tickets affected by disruption will be accepted on shuttle buses

With regards to rosslare services. An express coach will operate between connolly and greystones. Note that as a result of the coach services, departure times from connolly will be 20 minutes earlier

Has this got anything to do with "The Interconnector"?
