Readers Blog: West Cork bus fares are far too expensive

I have been examining bus fares over recent weeks and discovered there are major anomalies in the pricing structure of Bus Éireann services, whereby west Cork bus users are charged excessive rates in comparison to almost anywhere else in the country.

A monthly TaxSaver ticket for Kinsale to Cork city, for example, costs €232.50, whilst a Carlow to Dublin ticket only costs €206.
