Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

National Development Plan: Discussion

Mr. Jim Meade:

In fairness to the current CEO of Clare County Council, we have not had contact. We have had contact with previous CEOs in the past when it was a live option. The Deputy may know some of the history but at the time we were looking for funding, before the financial crash came a decade ago, to put in a station at Crusheen. It is outside the remit of the Limerick-Shannon metropolitan area transport strategy, LSMATS. It does not go that far north. As I said earlier, essentially it would be a requirement for the county development plan and the council's transport policy across the county. It is the authority for the policy so once it builds it in and we get the funding, we will build it.
