Sir, - We have a distinct lack of bus shelters in this part of the country. The rainfall statistics in the north-west and the promises by the Government to improve public transport services considered, would it not be prudent of the Ministry for the Environment to invest in such refuges so that one can at least read a book during the wetter waits?
Along with the many ideas mooted for the rural regions I suspect this one will be shelved too. - Yours, etc.,
Donal Mahon, Old Church Street, Manorhamilton, Co Leitrim.
