Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 24 June 2026
144. Deputy Shónagh Ní Raghallaigh asked the Minister for Transport if he will provide for increased train capacity for commuters in Sallins, Newbridge, Kildare town and Monasterevin as peak-time trains are consistently overcrowded; if he will provide high-frequency shuttles in the interim; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [48024/26]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport; however, I am not involved in the day-to-day operations of public transport.
The query raised by the Deputy is an operational matter for Iarnród Éireann. I have, therefore, referred the Deputy's question to the company for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
