Galway Daily Public consultation on BusConnects project in Galway City

The National Transport Authority (NTA) is hosting a series of public information events this week to outline the proposed redesign of the bus network in Galway and answer questions on the proposed new routes.

The redesign of the bus network is one of the nine key elements of BusConnects Galway that aims to fundamentally transform the city’s bus system, making public transport more useful to more people.

Under the proposals within the Galway bus network redesign report, the level of bus services in Galway city, Bearna and Oranmore will increase by nearly 50%.

The added service levels will make possible the extension of bus services to new areas, more routes with frequent services, an enhanced weekend timetable and a new 24-hour route.

The public information events will take place on the following dates and locations:

  • Tuesday, May 16 – The Ardilaun Hotel, Taylor’s Hill Rd.
  • Wednesday, May 17 – Maldron Hotel, Oranmore
  • Thursday, May 18 – The Hardiman, Eyre Square

Each event will run from 12pm to 7pm, and members of the public are encouraged to drop in at any time during these hours to learn more about the proposed changes, ask questions, and provide feedback. NTA staff will be on hand to discuss the proposals.
