Temporary bus service to be restored in town

A temporary town bus service will be available in Clonmel in January.

District Administrator Carol Creighton made the announcement at a meeting of Clonmel Borough District.

She had told a previous meeting that the project group of the National Transport Authority (NTA) was “looking seriously” at the restoration of the town bus service.

Cllr Niall Dennehy had stated that a serious cost was being incurred by people who had to come into the town several times a day, and the bus service needed to be restored.

District Mayor Pat English agreed that a replacement bus service was needed.

The service hasn’t operated since the onset of the Covid pandemic.
