Later Trains
to Tullamore and Clara stations
Public Transport
- Many people living in Offaly travel to Dublin for work or college, because of the housing crisis and hybrid working.
- The train service between Heuston, Tullamore, and Clara is not enough to meet their needs.
- I am committed to more accessible, affordable, reliable, and safe public transport.
- This begins with prioritising later trains to both Tullamore and Clara train station.
Open Meetings

Engagement & Transparency
- Far too many people feel disconnected from their elected representatives and Offaly County Council.
- Many decisions that affect people's lives are made in Council meetings, but it is often hard to find out what is said and how representatives vote.
- I want a Council that is as open and transparent as possible.
- The first step is making Council meetings widely accessible through online streaming and playback.
