Default Varadkar pulls plug on Metro West

http://www.rte.ie/news/2011/0925/metro.html

Disappointing but unsurprising all the same. What is surprising is that the planning funding for metro west was still available up to now.

Anyway it was nice to dream for a while. As a constant traveller to south/south west dublin it would have been a huge enhancement not to mention getting to the airport/swords. Only light at the end of the tunnel is Dublin bus's expected announcement of the enhanced 76 route from blanchardstown to tallaght operating hourly (or better) 7 days a week. Slight consolation!

So now focus switches back to metro north ......
