I was in Pearse Street Station today and yesterday.I noticed that the terminal track on Platform 3 is now covered with ruble and broken track parts and has wooden boards on the fencing beside it.I also noticed that the over head wires above Platform 3 which powered DART units has been dismantled.As well as that, there appears to be a bent metal bar and a stack of wooden sleepers blocking access to the platform.It also seems to be happening to the track behind Platform 1 as I saw similar work going on. Would anybody be able to tell me why this is?Has it something to do with the planned interconnector(Dart Underground)?
