Luas must give real answers for close down debacle

No Luas on the Green Line until 6pm yesterday, and then a half-hearted service. 

Luas is operated by Transdev, a large international public company. Like all companies its primary purpose is to make money for their shareholders.

What was the fault that kept the Green Line off the tracks for close to two days? Is there enough staff employed to ensure maintenance is given top priority? Obviously if equipment is properly and thoroughly maintained a fault like this is most unlikely to happen.

The story the company released to the media was meaningless and that the media printed it as per Luas HR has to make one critical of media outlets. 

Why did Transport Infrastructure Ireland allow this to happen? How is TII monitoring Luas? Will Luas be fined for this debacle? Will the bosses in Luas and TII be held accountable? Highly unlikely.

Why not hand the operation of Luas over to Irish Rail?

Where do the profits of Luas go?
