Independent TD Sean Canney has called on Galway County Council to erect a bus shelter on the Joe O’Toole Road to facilitate commuters and bus operators.
The local TD said that the bus stop is very popular, and with the introduction of the City Link Bus service to Dublin airport the stop is being used at night and day.
He said that a proper bus shelter with lights is required to ensure the bus stop is safe and dry.
“We need to ensure that if private bus operators are willing to invest in bus services, then the Government must weigh in with the necessary infrastructure to support them,” said Deputy Canney.
“I have discussed the matter with Galway County officials, and I have made a submission which will be examined by the Active Travel Team within the Council.”
“I am confident that more bus shelters will entice more people to use buses over cars.”
