Irish Rail, in conjunction with Meath County Council, is currently undertaking a feasibility study, including a cost benefit analysis, into providing a spur off the Dublin-Sligo railway line at Clonsilla and to reinstate the line as far as a park and ride facility adjacent to the N3 beyond Dunboyne. In assessing the rail proposal, I will also look at the impact on the rail proposals of the proposals to upgrade the N3 and the potential for bus priority measures along the route.
