The Chief Executive of Transport Infrastructure Ireland has said the MetroLink rail project will 'revolutionise' public transportation if approval is granted by An Bord Pleanála.

The Chief Executive of Transport Infrastructure Ireland has said the MetroLink rail project will"revolutionise" public transportation if approval is granted by An Bord Pleanála.

Dublin is ranked as the 35th most congested city globally, according to TII and this in turn creates big economic and societal costs due to traffic delays. Over the past six weeks inspectors have heard more than 120 submissions from stakeholders including TDs, business owners, residents associations, GAA clubs and environmentalists voicing support both for and against the long-mooted underground metro system for the capital.

TII made accessing information as difficult as possible said Anne Meehan, a Glasnevin resident, who is in favour of an overground rail line because it is a greener option that will save the taxpayers billions. Earlier this week, An Bord Pleanála announced its intention to re-advertise the consultation to facilitate revised documents and new information provided by TII as the hearings progressed.
