A bus service operating in Monasterevin has been criticised by a passenger.  
Tina Newman claimed that the 726 N7 route from Portlaoise to Dublin Airport has failed, at times, to turn up as scheduled. 

Tina said: "Passengers, including vulnerable individuals with special needs, are often left standing, waiting for a bus that simply does not arrive.
"This situation not only causes immense frustration but also poses serious risks to those who rely on this service for their daily needs."
Dublin Coach has been contacted for a response.
