Bantry Bus Cuts Hit Free Rides | Ireland News

from Ireland News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Bantry Rural Transport is shutting down its fish factory bus and free on-demand rides—including wheelchair-accessible doctor trips—due to unsustainable costs, leaving three part-time drivers jobless. The charity clarifies this isn’t Local Link cutting services (which remain intact under a new operator), but a tough financial decision driven by limited resources. While these specific ad hoc services are ending, regular accessible routes have expanded across Bantry and nearby areas, offering continued mobility options.
