    Wouldn't that be off topic?

    Which bit - the fantasy or the public transport thing?

    Surely, the thread is about spending countless billions of fictional new oil revenues to boost the countries infrastructure. Surely logic does not limit it to just motorways. There are other forms of infrastructure.

    I say we go full Dubai. 😀 turn ourselves into a super state. Super High buildings with our own hyper loop transportation,Dublin air & spaceport with 5km runways to cater into the future, along with T3 T4 and SP5 ,smart road patrolled by roboguards on electric bikes. In fact convert the rail system into a hyper loop.Build a dublin metro with several lines. Build mass cycle infrasture along side the major routes between towns and cities. Build that mad sky way that was proposed from Heuston to city centre along with that New Dublin project/joke in Dublin bay that did the rounds a few years back with the giraffe only zoo and such. We do have billions so why not go wild

    I'd like a road, doesn't necessarily have to be motorway, but decent quality going from somewhere between Wicklow and Arklow to Carlow. Linking the n11, n81 around Tullow, m9 and onto the n80. Would make access to the Midlands from East and south Wicklow an awful lot better.

    Doesn't that look a bit like the fantasy motorway network?
