Wouldn’t light rail/tram services make more sense for other, smaller cities – can’t imagine Galway really needing this when you can walk the length of the city in ~20 mins
Ya they should but they won’t (sigh) 🙄
GART, WART, CART, LART.
Nah, doesn’t translate.
Anything to be said for a monorail
If only this guy had been Minister for Transport. . .
be great when they call them after the places they serve.
Wart
Fart
Cart
Preferably in our lifetime
DART to Dingle!
Yeah he should really tell the minister for transport this…
Yeah no fucking shit our cities need more public transport. What a stupid redundant statement
I think for planning and feasibility purposes, a Luas would suit most cities fine, but the Dart allows you to connect with surrounding suburbs at a higher speed. I’m loath to compliment him because I hate his smarmy answers to most things, but I like that he drops ambitious ideas like this at public events as a way of getting them into wider conversations. It basically does work that his small base of TDs couldn’t do otherwise.
Hopefully looks to be already happening in Cork with the double tracking and station upgrades linking Mallow (North) through the city to Midleton (East).
Fingers crossed all this great new infrastructure will be finished before 2080
40 years too late
Dublin needs an underground.
He must have been reading my comments on Reddit
Lets remind ourselves that the refugee hating Gain Peppers of Ireland pitch themselves against Ryan in particular.
Perhaps remind yourself of that the next time you’re stuck in traffic in Coolock.
On what fucking tracks. We cycle on them all now.
Dart West now 2 years in planning 🙄 He’s doing a brutal job at the Dart lines already in progress without thinking of other cities
I don’t think other cities need extra heavy rail installed. If they’re building infrastructure they ought to build lighter rail or metro.
Realistically, when will there be a luas/dart/train directly to Dublin Airport? 2050?
Eamon Ryan should be introduced in less cities!
Bring in fare capping first please.
DART or Luas. Either way, we should be building out light, electrified rail. The “way too expensive” investment will be recouped and more.

How about an underground
