Here in Strabane,we have a very busy Bus Depot, and after 6 o'clock, there is no way for people to contact a taxi firm, family member or friend, to ask for transport to wherever they need to be. I have asked BT to install a payphone adjacent to the site. But they refuse unless it is financially viable. Even though, a few months ago, they renovated a payphone on Market Street, which has easy access to two different taxi ranks. I hope to gain a substantial number of vote here, so I can show BT that the public desires a pay phone at this site.

Seeing this kind of momentum feels heavy but necessary. It is exhausting to keep pushing for something as basic as a phone, yet seeing you all back this gives me the resolve to keep fighting BT.

Strabane needs this. Phones are dead and not everyone has credit on their mobile when they get off the bus. Basic service required.

Ridiculous that they wont put one in. Loads of people getting off the bus late at night are stuck with no way to call a taxi. Sort it out BT!

Common sense needed here. The depot is packed but come evening its impossible to get a lift. Put the phone in.
