Bus Eireann is looking at cancelling a number of inter-city routes due to the financial impact of Covid-19.

The semi-state company is believed to be looking at ending the Dublin services to Cork, Limerick and Galway, while also suspending operations to Belfast.

The National Bus and Rail Union says it isn't surprised and says it has been assured there won't be any job losses.

Instead, The Irish Times reports that Bus Éireann is planning an expansion of its operations in Cork, Galway, Limerick and Waterford where it offers city services.
