Re: Re: Metro West

wtf are people on about. If you add in the growth predicted for Tallaght, Balgaddy, Porterstown, and the corridor north of the M50, there’ll be plenty of trips on this line. We need an orbital line to connect the suburbs without going into town. It’s a public transport alternative to the M50, and it will be successful. The same people were saying the same thing about the DART and the LUAS. When will people learn that suburban rail is an engine for growth. Public transport based growth. It’s not about what’s there now. It’s about what will be there inm 20, 50, and 100 years. Oh yeh and Liffey Valley is gonna be rebuilt, as well as the Naas road corridor. Christ lads will ye ever be happy?

andrew the ballymun to tallaght econimc corridor, as you call it, just happens to contain the largest retail areas on the island, and will contain office parks and high density residential areas. Look at the Tallaght LAP for a start, then newlands, naas road, balgaddy, metropark etc etc etc…
