## Resource

Clare Local Link is setting its sights on a new demographic with the introduction of contactless payments on its services. The measure applies to all single journey fares and is being introduced following a successful pilot programme in the Cavan/Monaghan region. All contactless and online fares will continue to be discounted by 30% in comparison to cash payments. TFI Local Link Clare and Limerick Manager Anne Gaughan is hopeful it will increase the popularity of the service.
