Mattie McGrath
Question:100. Deputy Mattie McGrath asked the Minister for Transport if he will request Bus Éireann to change their 355 route from Waterford at 5:40pm to continue their journey to Cahir (details supplied); the reason the 5:40pm bus only travels as far as Carrick-on-Suir, whereas at all other times the 355 route continues to Cahir; the fact that the 5:40pm route includes Waterford SETU (departing at 5:20pm) but does not travel as far as Clonmel or Cahir means that students in Clonmel and Cahir cannot avail of direct public transport to and from both towns to the South East Technological Institute, and a very slight change to continue the route would allow a large number of students to avail of this route without encountering significant delays in Waterford; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
