    L’ultimo dei nuovi treni DART è arrivato ieri al porto di Dublino dalla Polonia. Non ci sono solo brutte notizie per quanto riguarda il trasporto pubblico in Irlanda!

      This is bad news, in the sense that it should have happened ages ago.

      Anyone know when the public will actually get to use them? I presume there will be a long period of testing before we get into them?

      Its not a question of it all being doom and gloom. Its just across the board way too slow & unambitious for public transport improvements.

      We are way to rich a country to have it be so slow to get around

      Meanwhile the line between Athlone to Mullingar was turned into a greenway which is great but a Trainline would have been better

      It would be better news if the government didn’t just postpone a handful or public transport infrastructure plans so they could use the budget to build roads. A strategy that has proven time and time again to not work in cities across the world.

      You would have to wonder just how much of an influence the car lobby had on this decision making. Darragh O’Brien is Transport Minister and was previously Housing Minister. In charge of a department which allowed its rules and funding to be written by developers and cuckoo funds.

      The cancellation of transport infrastructure does not bode well for the future of this government.

      They’ll look great sitting still waiting to squeeze through Connolly in the morning.

      New trains are great but it’s infrastructure we’re after.

      I only commute once or twice a week from the Midlands to Dublin, down by the ports and I’ve no had a delayed train all year, bar maybe 2 mornings where we were like 30 mins late.

      I absolutely love my commute. I’m going for drinks tonight getting the last train home, but ordinarily, I can leave my office at 4pm, grab a Dublin bike down the quays to Heuston, walk onto the 4.25 Limerick train and I’m in Laois at 5.03pm…. an hour and 3 mins from the far side of the city, down by the docklands to Laois.

      Also, I have my golf wets in my bag in case I’ve to cycle in heavy rain and have only used them once all year a few weeks ago.

      I thought these were broken and couldn’t be used for years.

      I look forward to getting FF/FG leaflets boasting about how they delivered them, despite them actively gutting public transport funding.
