Sir, - Marginalised Northsiders like myself are amused at the media attention being paid to the new Stillorgan QBC. Much air-time and newspaper print have been given over to speculation about the problems it will cause for motorists on the fashionable side of the city.
However, one phone call to a northside bus user would have provided the caller with an account of the benefits of a QBC. Yes, we've had our very own for over a year, operating from the Malahide Road along the North Strand. It is running very smoothly, ensuring bus passengers a speedy entrance to the city centre, and day by day making our drivers think again about taking their cars into the city. We wish our fellow bus-using citizens on the southside much happy commuting. - Yours, etc.,
Eamonn McLoughlin, Aldrin Walk, Coolock, Dublin 5.
