TRANSPORT Minister Noel Dempsey has continued to insist the second phase of the Dublin-Navan rail service will go ahead, even though there is no specific reference to the project in the Government’s revised capital spending programme.

HUNDREDS of rail passengers suffered hours of delays after Iarnród Éireann axed more than a dozen services in and out of Dublin over Easter.

There will be no rail service on the Dublin-Maynooth line this evening.
