A midlands county has several issues with its bus and rail services.
The re-opening of a train station is high on the list of priorities for people who took part in a transport survey in Westmeath.
It found many bus and rail issues around the county.
The survey, which was put together by Chair of the Killucan Kinnegad Transport Lobby group, Denis Leonard, found people in Westmeath have lost jobs and been forced to give up on college due to a low number of 115 bus services to Mullingar from Kinnegad and to Dublin from all areas of east Westmeath near the M4.
A regular service to replace the former 20 bus route and a need for more bus shelters were some of the issues highlighted with the bus service in the region.
It also found transport options between towns in the county to be poor.
Top of the list of concerns among the rail service was the re-opening of Killucan Train Station, which has been closed since the 60s - a feasibility study on this is due to be completed in the new year.
It also highlighted the need to recommence the Mullingar-Athlone line and add more carriages to the Dublin Sligo route:
