The DART is moving to a Saturday schedule on weekdays from Monday

James Fenton

Irish Rail has confirmed that DART services will operate on a Saturday schedule on weekdays from Monday.

Due to Covid-19 restrictions, significantly reduced demand is expected across and Irish Rail has reflected this by announcing a range of reduced services which will come into effect from Monday, January 11.

Trains will operate at 25% capacity and will be reserved for essential workers, carers and people who are traveling for essential reasons. Among the changes will be that the DART will operate on a Saturday schedule from Monday to Saturday, as will the Northern commuter line and Maynooth commuter line.
