Bus stopped in ‘save our route’ protest

RESIDENTS fighting to save their bus service blocked and boarded a rush-hour bus last night.

Up to 80 people from the Glen and Dublin Hill areas of Cork blockaded the 5.25pm bus on the No 12 route through Glenthorn Estate near Blackpool for about 20 minutes.

They then got on board and staged a peaceful protest on the bus before applauding the driver, disembarking and letting him drive on.
