The enhancement is part of the Connecting Ireland Rural Mobility Plan.
From Sunday July 28th Route 523 will have five daily return services from Monday to Saturday and four daily return services on Sunday between Mitchelstown and Mallow.
The enhanced route will improve connectivity to Mallow Train Station, regional bus services and to villages such as Kildorrery, Shanballymore, Doneraile and Newtwopothouse.
The early morning return service operating Monday to Saturday will allow commuters to access Mallow and Mitchelstown before 9am and will facilitate onward travel by train to Cork City.
