Galway Advertiser, January 05, 2012. Bus lane is confusing customers, says Go Dutch proprietor Henk Van Enk. Kernan Andrews The bus lane on Forster Street has made it “impossible for businesses to successfully trade” there, and is the chief reason so many premises on the street have closed over the last month. This is the view of Fine Gael councillor Pádraig Conneely who said businesses on Forster Street have been “devastated” due to the bus lane which “goes nowhere”.

Over the past month, six retail businesses on Foster Street have closed, with the latest casualty coming this week, with the closure of Go Dutch florists. While many would cite the economic situation as the main factor, Cllr Conneely and businesses feel the rate of closures in a small area over the space of four weeks shows other factors being more at work. Hank Van Enk, the owner of Go Dutch florists, points out that the bus lane makes people afraid to park on Forster Street in case they receive a fine for blocking the route.
