Question 130: To ask the Minister for Transport if, with the imminent reopening of the Youghal railway line as far as Midleton, there are temporary or permanent developments or obstructions on the Midleton-Youghal section; and the measures Iarnród Éireann has undertaken to keep this right of way fully intact.

I understand from Iarnród Éireann that the Midleton to Youghal section of the railway line, although disused at present, remains in CIE ownership and there have been no developments that would compromise its future use as a railway. Furthermore, I understand that Iarnród Éireann will continue to protect the alignment whilst it remains in CIE ownership.
