@goppers.bsky.socialEmbarassing one for the Taoiseach.. No funding for construction of Cork Luas. It'll be 2031 at the earliest before it starts.
Show PostThat is not exchequer spending and is outside of the NDP. The fund is being used to prop up spending that was already committed (MetroLink) because they're diverting funding to build roads. It's also not clear if there's additional exchequer funding for MetroLink.
Show PostThere is funding for MetroLink.. sort of. They're raiding the Infrastructure, Climate and Nature Fund which was set up by the Greens to save for future environmental problems and in the event of an economic downturn.
Show PostActive travel funding is being set at the same level for five more years. With the ongoing and projected inflation in construction, this €360m will deliver a lot fewer projects than it did in 2020. It's effectively a funding cut.
Show PostThere's no funding to reopen the Waterford-Wexford/Rosslare. The All-Island Rail Review recommended reopening this. It's only been closed since 2010 and is being maintained. Would have been huge for regional development.
