A Monaghan senator has welcomed extra bus services for Monaghan.
Beginning last Sunday, the Expressway 32 route now has 12 daily return trips between Donegal and Dublin.
The timetable change saw the introduction of a new midnight departure from Letterkenny, serving Monaghan at 2am, as well as a new late night departure from Dublin at 00:15.
Monaghan Senator Robbie Gallagher has welcomed the commencement of the new services.
He says he's hopeful it will provide a more reliable service for airport commuters.
