184 Mr. Callely asked the Minister for Public Enterprise the progress with the construction phase of the proposed Dublin light rail lines; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [8680/00]
To date, I have granted light railway orders to CIE for the Tallaght to Abbey Street, line A, and Sandyford to St. Stephen's Green, line B, lines. I have also approved CIE's proposal to extend line A to Connolly Station in so far as it relates to the development from Abbey Street to Store Street. It is my intention to make the required light railway order for this section of the line when an acceptable proposal for a link between the Store Street stop and Connolly Station has been received.
