Passenger Numbers

From its opening in 2004, passenger numbers on Luas grew strongly until 2007, reaching 28.4 million that year. Following the economic downturn, passenger numbers declined in 2008 and 2009. However, the opening of extensions to Docklands in December 2009, Brides Glen in October 2010 and Saggart in July 2011 has resulted in renewed growth in passenger numbers, with a record 32.6 million passengers carried on Luas in 2014.
