NTA Confident West Clare Bus Route Changes Will Reduce Journey Times

Clare FM

The National Transport Authority is expressing confidence proposed changes to a bus route in West Clare will significantly reduce journey times. Public consultation has opened on planned bus enhancements in the west of the county, among them being a pledge to increase the frequency of Route 350 to every 90 to 120 minutes. It's proposed that the bus will be re-aligned to operate between Lisdoonvarna and Ballyvaughan along the N67, while to complement these changes, Route 350C will operate along the R477 via Fanore and onto Kinvara, serving Ballyvaughan, New Quay and Nogra. Senior Transport Planner with the National Transport Authority Conor O'Donovan has been telling Clare FM's Seán Lyons the typical time a passenger spends on the 350 bus could be cut by 15 minutes.
