Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Transport Strategy for the Greater Dublin Region: Discussion

Mr. Hugh Creegan:

We expect four planning consents to be sought this year for bus-based park-and-ride on the N11, M11 and also on the M1, which will hopefully be north of Swords.

The Deputy mentioned the M7 and N7. Long term, we would like to put a large park-and-ride site at Sallins Naas train station. We may have to move the station or put a second station slightly south of it to make it all work seamlessly. That seems to be the right thing to do there. In the interim, there is the Red Cow park-and-ride, where additional bus services have been put in and various other changes are occurring there. There is therefore a coherent park-and-ride programme. Like everything else, it takes time. however, there is a coherent park-and-ride plan in place.
