I agree with you re MCC, particularly on the levies. They have to actively facilitate this project.

The levy element of the study was based on the 1km model for Dunboyne which obviously would not work on the section between Navan and Pace as they would yield very very little.

For example the huge development planned for east Navan would be well outside that as would many south Navan developments.

MCC need to play ball on this, but not hard ball

Just reiterate the study was based on 85% of projected population growth - Meath has a long history in recent times of well exceeding these projections. In addition that study was based on northern line comparisons where much of the line is backed against the sea
