Default Most Bizzare Rail Proposals

Was reading this morning that a developer in Dundalk is lobbying IE to build a spur off the Northern Line to 300 houses he is building north of the town.

Although the Mountmellick light rail project takes the biscuit.

Deferring the operation of the interconnector until 2015 7 years after the loopline will lose the capacity to cope with passenger loadings.

Transport proposals
New Ross Standard - Thursday 5 January 2005

Sinn Féin outlined proposals yesterday (Tuesday) which they say will bring transport infrastructure on the New Ross to Waterford route into the 21st century.

The Sinn Féin plan, which Cllr. John Dwyer said will be formally launched later this year, contains a number of key proposals.

These include a park and ride facility in the Raheen area of New Ross; an inner-relief bridge crossing at Marshmeadows; a Luas type train service from New Ross to Waterford and using the second river crossing in Waterford to piggyback that new rail system into the heart of Waterford's industrial and commercial areas.
