Category — Dublin transportation

Afternoon all,

I was talking to someone last night who mentioned a decent way of collecting for charity - dublin bus receipts.

Evening all

I’m pleased to say that we are now beta testing a mobile version of JustRoutes

Now you can get the routes between you and your destination while you are on the move.

To do so, simply point your phone’s internet browser to mob.justroutes.com

You will notice that the biggest difference between this and the main site is the lack of the large city map. Don’t worry we still have the bus stops mapped in we have just opted for a simpler approach to cut down on those data charges

as always comments and suggestions are welcome so keep em coming

I’ll post some screenshots tommorrow

Hi all,

Thanks for all the comments on our posts. A number of users are asking for our email details. You can contact Dave Rooney at any stage by emailing dave@justroutes.com. If you need to contact me, just email vinny@justroutes.com but it might take me a little longer to reply.
A number of people were wondering about their being a wiki on the site to add/alter routes. If anyone would like to help us gather routes and they have a GPS device, please by all means contact me and I will let you know the details.

Hi all,

I have just finished adding 1500 new Bus Eireann stops onto our site. All the national buses which go in and out of Dublin as well as all the expressway routes have been mapped. We have currently half the Bus Eireann routes done nationwide. Our end goal is to allow people to pick any 2 places in Ireland and let us work out the best way to get you there!:)

Can anyone tell me if this is correct?

I was chatting to a taxi driver about justroutes.com when he angrily told me his thoughts on the transport setup we have in Ireland. While Paris have an underground metro, they only have 2000 taxis for 12 million people. It seems we have 13,500 taxis for 1 million people. Could this be correct? The taxi driver seemed pretty convinced by it! I hope its not true, as many people at 12 at night in Dublin will tell you that there are not enough taxis in Dublin. Strange times this Celtic Tiger has brought to us.
