It's in an effort to tackle anti-social behaviour.
There are calls for Gardaí and soldiers to be given free public transport to help tackle anti-social behaviour.
Westmeath Senator, Aidan Davitt, believes the "scourge" is turning people away from using buses and trains.
He says the move would help to take more cars out of busy cities.
Senator Davitt says a number of bus drivers have been attacked and routes have been restricted in the evenings:
