Barndarrig (Irish: An Bhearn Dearg) is a tiny village in County Wicklow, Ireland. It is located just off the N11 road.

Public transport access

The village is served by a bus stop on the N11 road. It is served daily in each direction by several (but not all) coaches on Bus Éireann's Expressway route 2 (Wexford-Arklow-Dublin-Dublin Airport). It is also served albeit infrequently by Bus Éireann route 384.[1][2][3] The nearest railway station is Wicklow railway station.

Public dissatisfaction over removal of stop from route 2

Until the end of September 2012 Bus Éireann route 2 used to stop at Ballincor numerous times each day. There was considerable public dissatisfaction with the decision as the bus provides a useful link to hospitals as well as for commuting and leisure purposes. The stop was reinstated in the route 2 timetable from 25 August 2013 (inclusive). [4][5]
