MEETING OF SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MOTION NO.5

MOTION: Councillor T. Ridge

That this Council contact the operators of the Red Line Luas re. bullying and nuisance of passengers on a continuous basis by groups of youths who disturb and frighten other passengers particularly the elderly.  I was verbally abused recently when I asked a group to stop shouting and moving around upsetting, in particular senior citizens.  My journey was from Abbey St. and there was no security presence until Red Cow.  I believe an on-board security is the only safeguard for the users of the Luas.

REPORT:

If the motion is passed details will be conveyed to Veolia Trandev Dublin Ireland who is the operator of Luas.
