Most future transport funding must go to public transport and active travel, Eamon Ryan says

The rail review recommends introducing a faster and more frequent train service, particularly calling for intercity services to have their speed rise to 200km/h, with regional services to increase to at least 120km/h.

The majority of future funding allocated to transport must go to building out the public network, Eamon Ryan has said.

As he launched the All-Ireland Rail Review in Dundalk, the Transport Minister said further allocation of funds to developing the rail network would be the “political question of our time”.
