The railway line is the only solution to the Blancardstown M50 bottle-neck.

Go for it!

Blanchardstown is the biggest bottle neck. The railway should be reopened immediately.

Duleek is on the Drogheda to Navan line.

Services be brought to Duleek too as both Duleek and Slane are growing as quickly as Navan and have the same problems.

duleek is on the line and can be catered for easily, I would imagine. something has to be done. there is 4 and half hour round commute trip from Kells now and the traffic is worsening every morning. The christmas rush han't even started yet

That term originated in the number of toll roads in the repective counties

In the case of railway lines, it is to be reversed.

It is now, Kildare 4, Meath 0.

M3 bridge not in plans but an bord Pleanála have confirmed that the plans will change.

Next questions is what will the 10 year plan hold for Meath..

There are rumours flying that the Navan line will be in the mix.. Or a bluff study to take the heat off anyway..

Just what are we debating or petitioning here?

There is "NO CONTEST" to the argument concerning the fundamental aspects of what is at question here.

1/ Will a rail Link be of benefit to Meath?
2/Will the selfish and diabolical destruction of thousands of years of National and Natural Heritage with the building of another road be of benefit to Meath ?

These are the simple questions yet the "Powers that be" will NOT make decisions which will affect the lives of not only Meath residents but the whole of the Irish/Celtic community worldwide forever.

Is it not about time that those so called Leaders are "Demanded" to make a call one way or the other and then rather than all the skullduggery which is happening, named people will be taken to task for their actions.

I think it is an absolute travesty that this road is even being considered as it is "Not Required" and all it boils down to is another nail in the coffin for democracy, hammered in by our fastly declining and morally festering politicians and businessmen who care nothing for the people or their heritage but only for their selfish and self gain ethics.
