Galways Traffic Gridlock: Experts Push for Light Rail, Ring Road, and Better Bus Service
Politicians and locals gathered at a public meeting to demand action on Galways worsening traffic congestion. The proposed solutions include the GLUAS light rail system, a new ring road, and improved BusConnects service. Attendees expressed frustration with the city councils handling of the issue, particularly the hesitancy to formally back light rail amid ring road talks. A recent feasibility study supports a fourteen-kilometer GLUAS line, and leaders now call for an immediate route study to expedite planning and construction. The cost of congestion is already high, with projections reaching one hundred six million nine hundred thousand euros by 2040, and climate experts warn of massive fines if emissions targets are not met.
