A Donegal Student has joined the youth board of the Córas Iompair Éireann.
The group is made up of young people from across Ireland and exists to give feed back and a youth perspective to the transport provider.
Hannah Rose Burke from Stranorlar is studying Architecture in Belfast commenting on her appointment to the board she said, “I’m delighted to be joining CIÉ’s Youth Board. Public transport is an extremely valuable service however I see how many people in Donegal still rely mainly on cars to get around.
“I want to change this by making public transport a viable and attractive option in rural areas, particularly for young people and others who do not have the option to drive.
“I also regularly take the bus to get from Donegal to Belfast for university. From this time spent commuting to the north I’ve developed an interest in ensuring there are easy to avail of links between transport services in the north and south of Ireland.”
