I again raise the 424 bus service, which is still leaving passengers at the side of the road day in and day out. The bus serves Connemara, from Lettermullen and Carna into Galway city, but once it gets to Bearna, it is full, leaving commuters on the side of the road without a bus service. This is a ludicrous situation, with approximately 2,000 people living in the Bearna area and especially when Galway city's traffic is constantly at a standstill and we desperately need better public transport options. A bus route to Bearna should be included in the new network for Galway city and the 424 service needs increased capacity immediately to meet demand. I have raised this with the National Transport Authority, NTA, numerous times. Will the Taoiseach contact the authority to put a bit of pep in its step?
