Free parking will be provided in towns across the county for the Christmas period, starting today.
Galway County Council has voted to provide free parking from 11am over the Christmas period to help boost business in county towns.
The initiative was introduced in 2014 to help boost local businesses by encouraging people to shop locally.
From today until Christmas Eve all County Council parking will be free from 11am in Athenry, Tuam, Loughrea, Ballinasloe, Cleggan, Clifden and Gort.
Meanwhile, in the city the Christmas Park and Ride service begins today.
The Bus Eireann service will see buses run between the city and Galway Racecourse every 15 minutes from 9.30am to 9.30pm from Monday to Saturday
On Sundays, the service will run every 15 minutes between 11am and 7pm.
The cost is €3 per car, regardless of the number of passengers and includes all-day parking at Ballybrit.
