## Resource

Connemara residents are in crisis as buses vanish or overflow, leaving people stranded at work and college. The notorious route 424 from Galway to Leitir Móir is buckling under demand, forcing one commuter to pay over thirty euros for a taxi just to catch a train to Dublin. Sinn Féin’s Mairead Farrell is demanding a double-decker bus to fix the overcrowding, urging the National Transport Authority to act fast—before public transport becomes a luxury for those who can’t afford to wait.
