Locals who rely on Bus Éireann services will be left stranded from Monday with an all-out strike still on the cards.
All routes will be affected including the X7 Clonmel to Dublin route which is set to be axed in the coming weeks.
The service which stops at Callan and Kilkenny city currently runs 8 times a day but will be no more from March 12th.
Paddy commutes to Dublin daily on the early morning service and says its the best option for him to get to work on time.
Meanwhile Shane Ross is again refusing to intervene in the Bus Éireann dispute.
The Transport Minister says he will not ask the company to withdraw a letter to staff outlining pay cuts.
