Buttimer says Donegal has ‘one of the best rural transport services in the country’

Irish transport minister Jerry Buttimer said Donegal has one of the country’s best rural transport services after TD Charles Ward raised concerns about poor connectivity in the county. Ward said Donegal has no rail network and that residents in rural areas may have only one bus a day to reach a connecting town. He also cited missed buses that leave people stranded and unable to get to work or college.
