Senator Dolan stated “These new services from Monday to Friday along with the new Saturday and Sunday options means families can leave their car behinds and it takes away the stress of parking on a family day out.
Senator Dolan stated “I have worked on the Connecting Ireland Rural Mobility plan in 2021 we did a video campaign to show the need for services in the west. I have worked hard to ensure Ballinalsoe was included on these stops, we still don’t have a catering service on the trains and we need to see these services restored. Great news today for commuters, student’s & families.
