Rosslare Resignaling Project

[dowlingm]

I don't suppose the fact that the line is essentially completely shutdown on April 27 means IE will have all those drivers to fill the holes in the roster elsewhere?

[KSW]

I am delighted that the line is being computerised, We should start to see changes on this line (hopefully) I hope 10-15mins gets slashed from the Gorey to Dublin side of things.

Will the trains travelling south of Gorey travel faster?

[ACustomer]

While the journey planner has all the bus substitutions from Dublin to Rosslare, it is still showing a rail service between Waterford and Rosslare Europort during the affected period.

I know its an out-of-the way service, but a little attention to detail would not go astray.

[Mark Gleeson]

Expect a bus substitution on the that as well

Note that there is subtle difference in the information spread over 3 different locations.
