Breandán Ó Conchúir at the spot where buses currently stop in Abbey Street, Roscrea
The Sinn Féin representative for the Roscrea Templemore LEA, Breandán Ó Conchúir, has written to Tipperary County Council and the National Transport Authority to ask that bus shelters be provided at the stop on Abbey Street.
“I raised this issue with the Council at the end of last year and was informed that they were looking into the possibility of installing bus shelters in Roscrea. Their has been no development since then so I have contacted the Council again to request that bus shelters be provided at the Abbey Street stop,” he said.
Mr Ó Conchúir pointed out that almost 50 buses a day use this stop between services to Limerick, Nenagh, Portlaoise, Athlone, and Dublin.
“This is a high number of people to be left standing in the rain on a wet day,” he said.
He said that shelters would be a welcome addition for those using the services and that he will continue to pursue the matter.
