Killarney railway and bus station ‘connection’ a bridge too far

A ‘connection’ between a busy bus station and an award-winning historic railway station is a bridge too far for Bus Éireann and Iarnród Éireann.

Killarney railway and bus stations are just yards apart — but the journey between them for foot passengers laden with luggage can take up to a quarter of an hour, or more.

A high fence separates the two public amenities and passengers have to negotiate a shopping mall, during commercial opening times, or take an even more circuitous route when the Killarney Outlet Centre is closed.
