I don't know how that compares with around the country but there are 35 bus departures (can be of more than one bus) from Navan alone, 70 per day.

Never mind Trim, Kells, Virginia, Oldcastle etc etc and all of the one off departures from places like Rathcairn, Dunderry etc

I don't know lads, this is getting worse. Politicians just don't give a toss

Edit - actually, there may be more than that from Navan - there is more than one departure point. Not in the mood for checking now.
Cheers for the article link NJ didn't realise it was online. 18 bus departure between Galway and Limerick a day between Citylink and Bus Eireann. IIRC the high level of bus departures to Navan was dragged up as an excuse for not opening the railway from Navan by he-whose-name-must-not-be-mentioned from TCD.

Anyway I would suspect that once the M3 is completed we'll see a similar memo pass between desks in the Dept. of Transport...
