Galway Bay FM 20 April 2021 print Galway Bay fm newsroom – A comprehensive report on the potential for the creation of an ambulance base at Maam Cross is to be sought by the National Ambulance Service. It follows a meeting held between the Connemara Ambulance Crisis Group, the National Ambulance Service, and local politicians. Campaigners have long argued that ambulance response times in the region are unacceptable – often taking up to an hour after a call is placed. The latest high profile case involved a woman who gave birth in her car in Letterfrack, after being told an ambulance would take an hour to reach her.
