Eyre Square is the central point in Galway city and mostly everything revolves around it, including the one-way road system, so it is very difficult to get lost. The main regional bus station and train station are located within the same building at the top of the Square, there is one taxi rank outside the door and one directly across Eyre Square. Fares are normally £1 per mile.
Car-parking in Galway involves buying a parking disc or using one of the multi-storey carparks which are clearly signposted around the city centre. Most car parks cost 80p per hour or up to £10 for overnight. Disc parking costs 50p per hour and discs are available at most newsagents and shops in the city. A fine of £25-£50 is usually incurred on vehicles parked illegally or without discs displayed, or they may be clamped and towed away! The City bus service is very good and serves all the outlying residential and shopping areas, stops are located around Eyre Square and throughout the city.
