A number of Transport 21 projects have already been completed or are under construction, which have benefited the Kildare region, including:

the continuing development of the major inter-urban roads, such as the N7, N8 and N9

the opening of Docklands station providing extra capacity on the Maynooth line

the four-tracking of the Kildare line from Cherry Orchard to Hazelhatch.

The start and completion dates of Transport 21 projects which have not yet commenced will be determined by the funding allocation available during the current difficult economic climate. The commencement dates for these projects will also be influenced by the time taken for public consultation, the relevant statutory process and the procurement and contract award processes.
