An underground system in Dublin is desirable to prevent bad weather affecting traffic. Metro North was agreed by Cabinet in 2015, is to commence in 2021 and will finish in 2026-2027. Why is there a delay? Is it solely a funding issue? Traffic in cities across Ireland, and particularly in Dublin, leads to the prospect of a dismal, bleak future and an underground is the answer.
