    MORE QUESTIONS FOR CIE ON CEANNT STATION PLANS
    Tue 6th November 2007
    A City Councillor's calling on representatives of C.I.E to come before the City Council and explain their plans for Ceannt Railway Station.

    Councillor Billy Cameron wants an explanation as to why they are selling off surplus land around the station for retail use rather then keeping the land to further develop the rail system in Galway.

    He's accusing C.I.E of greed as he says they will make substantial financial gains from selling the lands.

    Councillor Cameron feels C.I.E's plans for the station don't take account of the future transport needs of Galway.

    I have been reading from different sources that between only a quarter or a third of Ceannt Bus and Rail station in Galway will be redeveloped for public transport. The rest will be developed for retail and apartments. They will only build three platforms at the train station. How can they build new platforms to cope with future commuter growth if all remaining space is converted into apartments and a retail area? Looks like this deal was made up in some tent at the Galway Races.....

    Michael D Higgins has been very critical of the plans in various newspapers and on the radio in the past few months.
