O’ Cuiv highlights unrealistic distances between Local Link bus stops in Connemara

It’s good to see the rollout of rural public transport services – but some of them have completely unrealistic distances between stops.

That’s according to Galway West TD Eamon O’ Cuiv, who’s raised issues with Local Link services in Connemara.

Speaking in the Dáil, he specifically referenced services from An Cheathrú Rua to Claremorris, and from an Cheathrú Rua to Clifden.

Fianna Fail Deputy O’ Cuiv said action has to be taken if the services are to be credible for many people.
