Less a 'booze cruise', more a 'drinks link'.
State-funded 'drink-link' bus will service 50 rural communities.

Hope those waiting on Hospital Trollys, and those women that are affected by the Cervical Cancer outrage that is occurring in this state at the moment, appreciate the Government priorities.

Glad my Taxes is being used for such a worthy and vitally important social service.A new State-subsidised bus service will transport rural residents to and from their local pubs this summer, the Sunday Independent can reveal.
Minister for Transport Shane Ross will this week announce 50 'drink-link' bus routes across the country.
The new routes will be in operation in 19 counties and operate mostly on weekends between 6pm and 11pm.
The scheme is aimed at allaying fears over rural isolation ahead of the introduction of strict new drink-driving laws. Around 188 weekly pub-runs will be in operation from June until December on a trial basis and at a cost of €450,000.
Counties Kerry, Cork, Donegal, Kildare, Waterford, Wexford, Cavan, Monaghan, Offaly and Laois will have their own 'drink-link' routes from June until December....
