<h4>Leave The Car Behind</h4>
Referring to the Christmas Park &amp; Ride, Brendan Gallagher, Senior Executive Engineer, Galway City Council, commented,&nbsp;
<blockquote>“This fantastic service affords you the opportunity to leave the car behind and travel in and out of the city to shop, eat out, visit the Christmas Market or other events or venues, without the stress of parking or congestion. Every car that is left at the Racecourse is one less vehicle contributing to traffic and emissions in Galway City over the busy Christmas period. A special thanks to our partners the Fairgreen Coach Station, Galway Racecourse and Callinan Coaches for helping us to deliver this excellent service.”</blockquote>
