This is what commuting in Dublin is gonna be like soon if they don’t improve public transport.

  1. The red line getting on at Smithfield to IFSC was like that back in 2014 even. Only from about 815 to 845. I used go in early to avoid the rush. Was empty at 730 to 745 back in those days.

    Could be well different now of course. Haven’t been in up donkey’s years

  2. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but this is the reality for loads of big transportation hubs during peak hour. I remember seeing this in the UK on my way to Luton. Just nuts

  3. Seems totally safe, saw this a few hours back and was like fuck that noise, I just wouldn’t, couldn’t and shall not.

  4. Irelands is bad enough, which is why I don’t use public transport. I’d rather sit in traffic for an hour in the comfort of my car.

    I remember getting a train into the city once at commuting time and it was horrible. I don’t know how people manage it every day.

    Jam packed, humid, having to stand, noise leakage from people watching things on their phones, having to move in and out to let people on or off.

    And then there’s people who go on about making public transport free.

  5. Probably never been to Tokyo. The only difference is people are waiting for their turn to be pushed in. Try to take as less space ass possible and dont complain or scream at each other.

  6. Paris has the densest metro network in the world. Things like this simply happen with public transport in cities at rush hour. If Dublin had more public transport, they’d still be busy, because the new lines mostly take commuters from other modes of transport, rather than other lines.

  7. Reminds me of rush hour when I lived in Seoul. Only difference there is that it’s normal and you just do your best to fit in and make way for others. No stupid shouting too.

  8. A large chunk of people in Dublin are just sitting in their cars crowding up the road. They wish they had a train, let alone one which isn’t crowded. I haven’t sat in the luas or dart in years now.
