Restore the no. 9 and 40 buses for Finglas

The new Fspine busses are horrendous, 
Over 100 people that I know or have heard have been complaining over these services,
they are very infrequent with people waiting up to 40 minutes for a bus that can get cancelled at any given moment and leaving Finglas residents in the dark for too long. The number 40 gave people living in Meakstown a direct link to Finglas village and into town.
I myself am working in the post office in Glasnevin avenue, I used to get the no. 9 bus to and from work, I now have to do a 15 minute walk and wait 30 minutes for a bus to arrive which is more than likely cancelled leaving me with a longer wait, I also now have to get three busses to and from school each day, 

I believe these new buses are to only benefit people in town and on the Southside of Dublin which is unfair and not right

I appreciate you reading this segment and truly hope you take this into consideration 

Why is this important?

People in Finglas have now been left without a proper bus route that can access all over Dublin, there have been wait times longer than 40 minutes for a bus that is 9 times out of 10 cancelled. The new bus routes are leaving people without a bus to get to school, work or to see an elderly member of their family.
It’s not fair for a bus that was being used by many people to be taken away from us so easily.
