A Donegal Deputy is calling on the local link bus service to be developed to provide an integrated and responsive rural transport system for Donegal.
Independent TD for Donegal, Thomas Pringle has called on the local link service to be integrated with Bus Éireann and other services to provide an improved rural transport system.
Deputy Pringle says Local Link in Donegal is probably one of the more highly developed services around the country but there still are gaps which need to be addressed.
Minister Eamon Ryan agreed and said integration is necessary to ensure public transport need is being met.
Speaking in the Dail, Deputy Pringle says people in cars travelling daily from Donegal town to Killybegs could be accommodated on buses if the buses were responsive to the needs of people..
