Ms Sarah Whelan:

In the Dundalk area we have a youth centre in the centre of the town. It provides better and more services but the problem of lack of transport needs to be tackled. In that area and in Toberona we rely on Bus Éireann. The bus usually arrives late or does not arrive at all. People in our area depend on that service for school, work and education. It is important that we get better a bus service with buses that arrive on time. We are lacking in transport to get to the town centre and often the buses are late. If we could improve that, we would be able to go into the town centre and visit the youth centre. We could possibly use it to gather around and all that stuff. Transport is an issue. We just want better services in Dundalk and also on the outskirts of the town. We do not want to complain about what others have but it is essential that we get better services for all the youth in Dundalk.
