Dozens of teenagers took a 17 mile hike to school this morning as they marched with their parents in a row over school bus tickets.
The teens, mainly from the Ballivor area of Co Meath, set off at 7.40am to walk to their schools in Trim to highlight the issue which has seen them excluded from bus transport.
Angry parents blasted Bus Eireann over the debacle with one, Prashant Shukla, revealing the company had sent him an email on July 1 telling him his payment for his son's ticket had been accepted and another on September 14 telling him he had never applied for any ticket before the July 29 deadline.
