Ryan set to bring business case for Dublin Metrolink to cabinet | Business Post

  1. They had written plans for Metro in Dublin when my Dad was a railway engineer in CIE back in 1980. It’s not a two decade saga, it’s nearly five decades.

  2. I really hope they can at least stick to this timeline now, as far as I know it was supposed to be submitted 2 years ago.

  3. I’d sooner go without the badly needed Metrolink than accept that this gobshite might have some involvement in it

    This plonker and his band of merry tax enforcers are going to destroy countless Irish businesses and families, blind by their allegiance to the green agenda. These green dreamers have no business in positions of authority or decision making

  4. No matter how much it costs, or how long, we need to build a metro. Neckar metros are a provision for future generations. Anyone who has spent any time in a city with one, knows how much a difference they make.

  5. It’s about damn time we have a cross party elected Infrastructure Tsar. A position appointed every 5 years and needs 66% Dail voting to overturn an agreed cross-party 10-20 year plan.

  6. The article is paywalled so I’m not sure if it mentions it, but I think a project like this does need to be matched with obvious investment in other areas of the country alongside it.

    But not having a rail link from your main international airport to its nearest city is basically shameful in this day and age.

  7. I look forward to my great grandchildren travelling on it in 2080

    (Only joking, I don’t really expect it to be built by then).
