The Western Development Commission has published the Sustainable Mobility Index 2024, the most comprehensive assessment and only index of its kind, of rural transport progress in Ireland. Covering 40 rural towns across the Western Region, the report demonstrates significant improvements in public transport accessibility and connectivity, while also identifying areas for further investment, particularly in active travel infrastructure, affordability, and connectivity. Five Clare towns were assessed, with Shannon again emerging as a standout performer ranking 2nd out of 40 towns nationwide. To find out more about this, Alan Morrissey was joined by Policy Analyst at the WDC and lead author of the report, Dr. Helen McHenry. Photo (c): Visit Clare
