Summary: Coach Service
Key dates:
The Italian, Charles Bianconi began his coach service in Clonmel, Co. Tipperary in 1815. By the 1840s his coaches were covering 3,250 miles of road every day. As the cost of travelling on the roads fell, more people could afford the fares. The Bianconi car was the most important method of travel until the railway took over.
