08-12-2008 - Bridge Strike

[Mark Hennessy]

There was a bridge strike of the bridge running from Tara St. to Connolly this evening around 6.

I was stuck in Pearse on the 17:54 from Blackrock - Longford.

However, for once, the driver made very clear, audible and accurate announcements every few minutes to keep us up to date.

It was a refreshing change and most passengers stayed on-board instead of dashing for buses so good to see.

In the event, we were only delayed for 10 minutes.
