Travel Around Dundalk and Travel Around Drogheda brochures list all of the Bus Éireann bus routes in Louth
Bus Éireann has launched new brochures informing the public of Bus Éireann services in Drogheda, Dundalk and surrounding towns and villages across the County and which connect Louth to Counties Dublin, Cavan, Monaghan, Meath and Tyrone.
They are also highlighting that Louth passengers can get 30% discounts on single fares with a TFI Leap Card when travelling on Bus Éireann PSO services.
”Bus Éireann is proud to serve communities across Louth and in the towns of Dundalk and Drogheda, where our town bus services carried over 600,000 passengers in 2019 travelling for work, education and leisure,” said Adrian O’Loughlin, Bus Éireann Senior Operations Manager, East.
”Today we are launching our Travel Around Dundalk and Travel Around Drogheda brochures which list all of the routes that we operate in the county.
In total, there are 240 Bus Éireann bus stops in Louth, with 71 of these within 2km of hospitals and 15 stops within 2km of higher education institutions.
Travelling by bus is also an inherently more sustainable mode of travel than private cars, because it emits up to one-fifth the amount of carbon dioxide per passenger kilometre and results in less traffic congestion, with more bus passengers meaning less cars on the road.”
”Strong bus services are vital for a growing county like Louth in keeping our communities connected,” said Councillor Pio Smith, Cathaoirleach of Louth County Council.
