ダブリン路面電車・ルアス


Dublin Luas

It has helped improve transport into the Dublin city center by introducing two efficient routes,
the Red and Green line. The Red Line travels from Tallaght to Connolly Station. The estimated
average distance of this journey is 50 minutes. The Green Line will bring customers from
Sandyford to Stephens Green in 22 minutes. All Luas trams run every five minutes during
the peak times and run at 10 minute intervals during off peak.


The Smart Card allows passengers on the Luas to pay as they go. This new system is simple to use.
Customers present their smart cards to a blue platform validator at the Luas station before
boarding and after exiting the tram. The validator will tell Luas passengers the exact fare that is
being deducted from their Smart Card.

ダブリン路面電車・ルアス

2004年、首都ダブリン市内と郊外とを結ぶ路面電車、ルアス(アイルランド語でスピードの意味)が運行された。
北アイルランドへの特急列車の始発駅、コノリー駅から市の中心街を抜け、アイルランド西部の都市とを結ぶ
長距離鉄道の起点、ヒューストン駅を経由、郊外の住宅街とをつなぐ。途中、中心のオフイスビルの街並みを通り
商店の軒先を走ったりする。線路ののすぐ横を流れる運河を過ぎ、大規模病院センターの次のショッピング飲食店
複合施設前が終点である。


夕闇が迫ると路面電車の乗降客は急に少なくなる。しかし、明るいビルの谷間をかろやかに走る路面電車には格別の
風情がある
