166. Deputy Malcolm Byrne asked the Minister for Transport his plans to extend platforms at railway stations along the Dublin to Rosslare line, in order to accommodate longer trains to reduce overcrowding; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [44773/26]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs Minister of Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding of public transport. The operation, maintenance and renewal of the rail network and stations on the network, including any proposed works to extend platforms at stations on the Dublin to Rosslare train line, is a matter for Iarnród Éireann in the first instance.
Given Iarnród Éireann's responsibility in this matter, I have referred the Deputy's question to the company for direct, detailed reply. Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
