A long anticipated new bus network for Galway City won't be rolled out until at least 2027.

Under the BusConnects project, there'll be an increase of 50 percent in services in the city, as well as Barna and Oranmore.

That includes more routes, more frequent services, enhanced weekend timetables and even a 24/7 services.

It was originally to start rolling out this year - but Galway East TD and Junior Transport Minister Sean Canney has told the Dáil it'll be at least 2027.
