From Monday, 17 November, TFI Local Link Donegal Sligo Leitrim will enhance services from Carrick-on-Shannon to Swanlinbar.
This enhanced route is part of the Connecting Ireland Rural Mobility Plan which is a major national public transport initiative developed and funded by the National Transport Authority (NTA) as part of the Transport for Ireland (TFI) Network.
