Galway Bay fm newsroom - Three new school cycle-buses have been set up across the city.
The latest cycle-buses bring to 10 the number of schools being served by the initiative in Renmore, the city centre, Westside and Knocknacarra.

Galway Cycling Campaign is calling on the city council to make it redundant by connecting convenient cycle networks between homes, schools, shops and pitches.
