Committee on Infrastructure and National Development Plan Delivery

Planning, Approving and Delivering Transport Infrastructure Projects: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Eoin Gillard:

About five years ago additional parking was provided that at Sallins through the provision of a private car park being made available for that. We have seen with the introduction of the revised fare system now the cost of travelling from places like Newbridge is cheaper.

Since it was implemented in April, we have seen an uplift in the number of people using Newbridge and a drop in the number of people using Sallins. We will monitor that over the next couple of months to see the impact of those fare changes and then see if the same capacity issues are in place. We can then start to consider whether there are further requirements for enhancements.
