Greater Dublin Area Transport Strategy 2022-2042: National Transport Authority
Mr. Hugh Creegan:
Unfortunately, there will be two stations and we will have to work out the timetabling to ensure there will not be two trains stopping unnecessarily close together. Perhaps the park-and-ride could have a service starting there and the mainline service might stop in Sallins village. That is to be worked out, but we believe the correct step to take is to put a second station on the Cork side of the existing Sallins station.
On traffic congestion in other areas, I think we will pass that back to the local councils to see what needs to be done. We are not going to resolve it in a strategy; that is for sure.
