Fury at axing of bus route

Residents who blocked a bus yesterday have vowed to ramp up their campaign against Bus Éireann’s decision to axe a crucial bus service to their area.

About 80 people took part in the peaceful protest at St Brendan’s Church in the Glen, on the northside of Cork City, just weeks after Bus Éireann axed the No 12 service.

The move has left the area with just half the bus service it used to have.
