Bertie Ahern (Dublin Central, Fianna Fail)

There are two metro lines, one going through the airport and Swords and the other going west. They are both at different stages of development. The engineering and planning work for the underground station at St. Stephen's Green integrating the metro and Luas is under way. The DART extensions in Dublin and the track of the Kildare route is under way.

Most road programmes are well ahead of schedule.
