Residents in Bridgetown and its surrounding areas are facing a summer of uncertainty after being told that their direct bus service to Waterford city is to be discontinued in the coming months. The Bus Éireann route (370) from Rosslare to Waterford currently stops in Bridgetown every morning, enabling those who study and work in the neighbouring county to arrive in time for college and their jobs.

However, as part of the reconfiguration of bus services across south Wexford, the 370 will no longer stop in Bridgetown. Informed that the service is to be discontinued sometime this summer, those who use it on a daily basis will have to source alternative means of transport when the route is changed.
