Irish Rail met with Wicklow County Council to discuss the progress of the DART+ Coastal South project and extending the DART to Wicklow Town and Kilcoole.
The meeting was hosted by the Transport, Infrastructure Delivery & Emergency Services, Strategic Policy Committee of Wicklow County Council and was chaired by Councillor Stephen Stokes.
He stated: “We are grateful to Irish Rail for their participation. It was highly informative. The meeting was an excellent opportunity to discuss exciting future developments and current challenges faced by rail commuters in East Wicklow.”
The DART is now expected to be extended to Wicklow Town in 2028, with an hourly service.
The DART+ Coastal Projects will seek to deliver an increased and improved electrified network, with additional passenger capacity.
It is looking to enhance train services between Drogheda in the north to Greystones in the south.
The area covered is 86 kilometres. North Wicklow will be covered by the Dart+ Coastal South Project.
A presentation on these developments was delivered to a recent meeting of Wicklow County Council.
