It's only when you travel in Europe, you see just how far we are behind in infrastructure, cities half the size of Dublin with undergrounds, motorways and rail linking major cities, nothing gets done in this country until everyone gets their share.

Really need a good rail service between Conolly Monaghan Omagh Strabane and Derry City following the N2 A5.

...and currently have no timeline for completion" Yep they do. 2100

Most people are reluctant to pay the toll on the M3 from Dublin to Navan ever since it opened - the traffic through Dunshaughlin village at rush hour at 4pm is as bad as ever, which I saw for myself when visiting family there from Manchester U.K. in October 2022

They can’t even build a children’s hospital in time or on budget so I wouldn’t get my hopes up on this

All closed railway lines along the island of Ireland North, South, East, West & Midlands are needed.

I’ll believe it when I see it - we wasted so much EU funds on motorways that people won’t use because of tolls, yet we closed down so many railways in the 1960’s that we now find need to be rebuilt and we don’t even have any truly high-speed rail lines in Ireland, let alone the high speed rail tunnel link to Holyhead - we don’t even have DART or LUAS to the Irish Ferries/Stena Passenger Terminals in North Wall and we have poorly designed bridges that don’t raise to allow ferries to travel further upstream, nor has enough money been spent on widening and deepening the Liffey Channel to allow bigger ships to berth nearer the Custom House

I note how many projects have no timeline and those that do will most probably never happen on time - I suggest you revisit and update this video 10 years from now (i.e. in 2033). We Irish are not the best at planning and even worse at turning plans into reality! Apart from that we're grand! 👍😉

Thank God dreams are free in Ireland if they weren't I'd be broke. That's all this is is dreams which at some point in the distant future will come true by a future civilization.

They should be expanding the railroad access not just a Dublin Papp’s between cork limerick Galway Westport

A train connection to Dublin Airport and the city would be amazing. The current bus system is terrible

Why so much road traffic projects in a country that definitely lack of a good railway network? more roads lead to more cars and to a chaos in the cities. It would be better to reactivate some disused rail links that most people won't need a car anymore for most of their journeys.

"No completion time" lol. That's because it takes forever to get things done here in Ireland especially when building infulstructer is concerned

All costs in this are imaginary as construction inflation is running above 10% a year and timelines aren’t available as the process takes so long. Also priority order gets rejigged by government periodically. The N24 project is listed incorrectly as in fact it will be more like 140 km.

Just completely ignoring the actual transport projects that will actually change Ireland such as the Limerick Shannon metropolitan area transport strategy

Are you just gonna not talk about the Limerick Shannon metropolitan area transport strategy, I can't imagine that will be cheap

They wont even give funding to upgrade the country lane that connects the largest 2 cities in thw west to north west.

They need to build the metro ASAP

Where is Mohon and Nayvin? We are great at planning projects in Ireland but very poor at building them. The metrolink has been talked about for 30 years 300 million has been spent so far and not a single track has been laid.

I'm sick hearing of this 'active travel' BS - just get the bloody roads done!

M20 is a waste. Purpose is to get traffic to Ringaskiddy and makes more sense to build M24 as it would join existing motorway network. This saves billions as there would be no need for North ring around Cork to get traffic from Blackpool to Dunkettle. M24 also opens up the Southeast to the West

Whatever....whenever

The text to speech is crap! Why not speak it yourself, ffs?

Appalling pronunciation. Check before publishing please

Never happen 😅

Dro-gay-da?

Ireland never does bug infrastructure projects get the Chinese french germans in

All pie in the sky never happen
