Passenger numbers up 56% on 2021 and back to pre-pandemic levels
Bus Éireann has announced a strong return to pre-Covid passenger levels, achieving 89.5 million passenger journeys for the full year in 2022, despite some pandemic impact in the first two months of the year. In 2021, passenger journeys were 57.5 million.
In 2022, Bus Éireann operated more than 225 million kilometres, representing the largest public transport network in the country. This includes more than 220 Bus Éireann and Expressway routes, and more than 8,000 school transport routes.
Bus Éireann hired 215 new drivers to join its workforce in 2022, with recruitment ongoing in 2023.
The school transport scheme, which Bus Éireann operates on behalf of the Department of Education, has also gone from strength to strength, with fares removed by Government in July. Over 150,000 students are carried on school transport each school day, across mainstream and special education.
Bus Éireann employs almost 2,800 people, across 17 locations. The company operates 1,100 vehicles serving 5,000 bus stops around the country.
