One key thing coming to the fore here is the scale of works required to deliver Transport 21 where under estimated and to be fair both IE and the RPA are very much in the we get one chance we are going to do this right camp

Completely agree about Lansdowne Road. Lost opportunity.

Cant see any of the LCs on the Howth branch being removed when realistically there wont be any more of an increase in frequency than the current set up.

Can see Serpentine and Merrion going but like someone said - no simple solution at the moment.

Luas Line BX1 or what ever its called has been called off for the time being, as the RPA and Dublin City council have "officially" announced that they are sitting down to figure out how to rip up the city for the metro and other projects without causing chaos.

Hmm, TBM anyone? Also the luas will be over stretched as it is, its a tram, not a bloody bus. Can you really expect to get a tram from Cherryorchard or even Bray to upper o'connel street, transfare and go to the DIT campus or Finglas?, Dream on!
