TFI Local Link is the national brand for the Rural Transport Programme that is managed by the National Transport Authority. The aim of TFI Local Link is to provide quality nationwide community based public transport in rural Ireland that responds to local needs.

TFI Local Link Mayo co-ordinate the delivery of community transport services under the TFI Local Link brand for the NTA with support from Mayo County Council. In Mayo, services are developed to prevent rural isolation and social exclusion. There are currently 46 Demand Responsive Routes (DRT’s), this means our vehicles alter their routes based on particular transport demand rather than using a fixed route.  There is one Rural Regular Service that runs 6 days per week, twice daily between Belmullet and Castlebar via Mulranny.

TFI Local Link Mayo have a contract with the Department of Rural and Community Development to manage the ferry service at Inisbiggle.  This links Island dwellers to the mainland daily.  This contract includes a bus service linking islanders to the TFI Local Link routes to Belmullet and Achill as well as other public transport services. The department also fund seasonal routes to the National Park and Greenway from Westport to Ballycory (currently not in operation due to Covid restrictions) .

TFI Local Link Mayo services typically pick-up and drop-off passengers at their own door and bring them to where they need to go like the post office, community centre, health care service or to the bank.
