The transport strategy for Dublin over the next six years has been launched with the Metrolink and Luas extensions still in the pipeline.
Those plans include the Metrolink from north of Swords through to Charlemont and the extension of the Luas to Finglas, Lucan, Poolbeg and Bray. Under the strategy all element of BusConnects are expected to be introduced along with a "next generation" ticketing system for services.
New plans are also being introduced as part of the strategy including provision of a new rail line from the M3 Parkway to Navan and extending the DART+ programme to deliver electrified rail services to Sallins/Naas, Kilcock and Wicklow. While the necessity for new Metro lines and the planning and design of eight new Luas lines and extensions will also be considered.
