A total waste of time (and money) nothing more than a PR stunt

No costs
No start dates
No definitive list of projects
Recycling of non T21 projects
No mention of the intergrated ticketing project
No mention that the city centre Luas link up is stalled at route selection

I'm sure there is a lot more missing

And of course no mention of the fact our current transport minister is a total car addict who travelled only 22 miles on the new Dublin Cork train while everythone else including the Spanish Ambassador did the full 329 miles thats not the example you want

Well there is actually little or no information on there that cannot be found elsewhere, and not a lot that is new. Hopefully it will improve and be updated regularly. :rolleyes:

Plus its a whole bloody year late.


You put up the website WHEN T21 IS ANNOUNCED, NOT THIS LATE.

Morons.

No, not the example you want, indeed. But at least, after a few years in the position, it is a start. Perhaps he could be persuaded to do a few more miles at the next big rail event, whenever that is. And then a few more at the one after that. And so on until he starts to learn something about public transport.

We live in hope. I often just wonder why we do.

Or maybe he could travel half way through the Interconnector.

Well, that's scheduled to be completed by 2015, and he's probably unlikely to still be the minister at that stage. As the architect of Transport 21, he must surely be due a promotion.:D

My vain hope is that the Irish public will do the right thing and vote him and his cronies out at the next election.

The vote-whore had commandeered a garda patrol bike today to get his ugly face on six-one.

First we must note that any project that finishes in 2006 or 2007 started years ago long before T21 was dreamt up

E.g. new intercity coaches first authorised 1999 before T21 and even the NDP

No mention either of the expected legal challenge to the Cherrywood Luas line and the fact most of the public consultations are running behind time
