Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport

National Roads, Light Rail and Metro: Discussion

2:00 am

Joanne Collins (Sinn Fein)

I am not against the MetroLink for one minute. It will be fantastic but, being from County Limerick, I probably will never use it unless it will link to Limerick train station. My point was that it probably will not be used by a lot of people outside of Dublin, but not for one minute am I against it and I agree we need these systems in place to bring in that foreign investment and those companies. However, they do not all sit on the east coast. There are a lot of companies in the Shannon region as well that probably will not benefit from the MetroLink but I do get what Mr. O'Connor is saying.
