Bus links to Railway Stations

[Traincustomer]

As already referred to in The Passenger this is an area in need of development.
Many Irish Rail stations are served by buses (both CIÉ/private) but this info needs to be made accessible. Yet other towns need to develop bus links that link towns, suburbs and outlying areas with railway stations. I fully understand that not everyone will be able to use a bus to travel to the station (location/need to drop off children etc... etc...). However there is scope for a significant shift. Allow me to quote two examples. Drogheda (McBride) station has regular suburban and Enterprise trains but no bus link. West St. (centre of town) is ten to fifteen minutes walk. Dundalk (Clarke) station is passed by buses several times a day but there is no bus stop outside the station on the road. In some cases it's just about creating awareness of existing routes, perhaps amending them slightly. In others it's about developing new routes.
In Co. Cork, for example Cóbh Town Service (Barry's Coaches) stops at the station whereas at Kent Station Bus Éireann City Service 5 serves the station.
Debate in this forum has rightly and validly referred to car parking issues but if proper bus-rail links were the rule (rather than the exception) everyone would benefit; less congestion. stress and better for the environment.
