   We're a TV production company and are currently seeking outraged commuters who would be willing to speak out on rte television regarding the difficulties of getting to a creche, work, train station and home with our utterly outdated transport system. We are looking for young families who particlarly find the above difficult.

   With all respect, I feel your programme has been done many times before, we all know the problems with roads and trains in ireland and everybody is aware of the issues, what difference will you programme make? Transport 21 was announced a few months back so you may find the answers to a lot of your questions there. I just don't think watching a programme of a young family struggling to get to work on time particularly interesting. Wait a few years and if things have not changed you will have something more substantial than an "outraged comuter" moaning about the M50. I think parents are more concerned about the high creche prices and the housing market which still needs urgent attention. While transport is an issue for many young families, you would need to address the balance of why they need to put their kids into the creche... possibily so they can work to pay the high mortgage on house they had to buy on the outskirts of Dublin or surrounding counties and then all of them to expect to get to their desk in the city for 9am. Yes, the transport system is outdated but there is a plan in place to correct that, what is the purpose of your tv programme? Is it to reveal something new about the transport habits of people or just a simple moan similar to 'Airport' or some other fly on the wall show?

   How can our outdated buses get anywhere with all the cars on the road? Nutley lane can be blocked at times with all the RTE lads going in!
   Address by coming in from bray on my 45 as a passenger! (bring a paper)

   How about instead you make a documentary about the minister who gets driven around all day? Or maybe we could record how the OP travels to work everyday? Do you use public transport? Didnt think so...cya L8rz

   I would imagine that the programme would highlight the fact that we now expect a bad service and we get it. On or off peak. traffic or no traffic. DB will blame anyone but themselves. How many people look at thier bus at the terminus while the driver stands talking? Then he starts adjusting scrolls and ticket macines at the time the bus should depart before loading up. most buses depart 5 mins late because of this practice. And inspectors watch. If you ring DB you are told "traffic" this is before you even state what route you are complaining about. The programme cant make anything worse but can highlight that traffic is not entirely to blame for the disgrace that is dublin city services.

    Little boys should be see and not heard. especially a little ignoramus like yourself. There is no such word as Aint so try going to school next week and leave these discussions to the adults. I have worked in transport for 20 years so if you want to know anything about timetables or anything else then ask nicely. There is nothing you can tell me that I dont already know.
