Integration of public transport services in the greater Dublin area is being pursued within the broad policy framework established by the Dublin transportation office's "platform for change". Provision of a link between O'Connell Street and St. Stephen's Green to connect the Tallaght and Sandyford Luas lines is being considered in the context of the first phase of the metro project from the city centre to the airport, as distinct from an overground Luas connection. I expect the Government to consider proposals on the metro soon.
