Step 1: Visit the TFI Local Link Galway website
The first step is to visit www.locallinkgalway.ie , where you can find all the information you need about our services. You can also access the website in Irish by clicking on the Irish Flag icon.
The website is designed to be simple and user-friendly, both on desktop and mobile devices. You can easily navigate to different sections using the menu bar, or use the search box to find what you are looking for.
Step 2: Find your route
The next step is to find your route by clicking on the Timetables link on the menu bar. This will take you to a page where you can see all the routes available, sorted by alphabetical order. You can also use the filter option to narrow down your search by entering service type, area, or day of the week.

Some of the routes are regular rural bus services, which operate on fixed schedules and routes. Others are door-to-door bus services, which are more flexible and can divert their routes if pre-booked by phone for pick-ups where residents have mobility difficulties.
Step 3: Check the fare

The fares for TFI Local Link Galway are affordable and vary depending on the distance travelled and the type of service. There are single, return, student and child fares available. There are also weekly fares available for some routes, which offer unlimited travel within a week.
You can pay for your fare in cash on board the bus. You can also use your TFI Leap Card, TFI Go App, or Free Travel Pass if applicable.
Step 4: Book your seat
The final step is to book your seat for your journey by calling 091 842384, using our contact form, or email at galway@locallink.ie. This is necessary for door-to-door services, as they require pre-booking at least one day in advance. You do not need to book your seat for regular rural bus services, unless you are a wheelchair user, in which case you should always book your seat to ensure accessibility.
When you call, you will be greeted by a friendly staff member who will ask you for your name, phone number, pick-up point, destination, date and time of travel, and number of passengers. They will also confirm your fare and let you know when the bus will arrive.
