I propose to take Questions Nos. 620 to 626, inclusive, 628 to 630, inclusive, 643, 670 and 671 together.
As the Deputies are aware, the Capital Plan 2016-2021 has been superseded by Project Ireland 2040.
As the Deputies are also aware, Project Ireland 2040 provides indicative allocations over the next ten years for a range of public transport related projects and programmes including those referred to by the Deputies.
As noted in Project Ireland 2040 individual projects and programmes remain subject to compliance with the Public Spending Code, including its requirements in relation to appraisal and Sanctioning Authority approval points.
Details regarding indicative allocations, current status and expected completion dates where applicable are published on the Project Ireland 2040 Tracker as published by the Department for Public Expenditure and Reform and available at the following link:
www.gov.ie/en/publication/6db7c4-investment-projects-and-programmes-tracker/.
With regard to DART Underground, the DART Expansion Programme as proposed to be funded under Project Ireland 2040 does not include the Underground element but that instead the route for the Underground Tunnel will be established and protected to allow for its future delivery.
In relation to the Luas Cross City and Phoenix Park Tunnel projects, it should be noted that both projects are completed since 2017 and are contributing to the provision of an enhanced public transport service for all users.
In terms of the potential electrification of the rail network outside the Greater Dublin Area, Project Ireland 2040 commits toward an evaluation of high-speed rail on the main inter-urban network against improvements to existing line speeds and that evaluation will be commenced next year.
