Dublin, Ireland : 13th and 14th February 2013

Catching up on recent extensions to the Red Line, to the Point (O2 Arena) in the east and the community of Saggart in the west and adds the westen branch to Tallaght and additional photography on the core Red line to the photos taken in 2005

Dublin 2013.JPG
It had long been planned to extend the Red line eastwards to the entrance to the commercial docks where the O2 Arena is situated. The route, along George's Dock (see photo above), Mayor Street Lower and Upper and terminating in Castleforbes Road, passes through old docklands areas now partially redeveloped as an International Financial Area. The recent economic depression which hit both Ireland and the Financial sector hard has meant that the route is not as busy as originally hoped, but with economic conditions improving, the long term value of the link will be realised. Traffic on the extension to Saggart at the western end of the route has also been disappointing. New housing areas created on the edge of the city during the times of the boom, which in terms of the Irish housing market approximated a construction bubble, have not filled to the level expected. Dublin is pressing ahead with tramway development despite government budgetary cuts which have seen no progress on more ambitious projects such as Metro North and Metro West and a rail tunnel under the city centre linking Heuston and Connolly Stations. The Green Line which currently terminates at St Stephen's Green will be extended northwards through the city centre and a new bridge over the River Liffey is under construction for the southbound tracks of the forthcoming line.
