[13535/04]
View answerThe proposals relating to the development of commuter rail services in Cork, including the reopening of the line to Midleton, involve a two-phased approach. The second phase, which it is suggested should proceed when the land use developments are well advanced, includes the construction of a new station at Monard, the expansion of some park and ride facilities and the provision of additional rolling stock. The cost of this phase has been estimated at €25.3 million.
