It was discussed at the Public Accounts Committee yesterday

The National Transport Authority has told the Oireachtas Public Accounts Committee that it intends to extend the Dart+ West out to Kilcock Train Station. 

When questioned by Social Democrats TD for Kildare North Catherine Murphy, Deputy CEO of the NTA Hugh Creegan said that assuming planning consent comes through for the project this year, "we would envisage starting a project with Irish Rail next year to extend to Kilcock and ensure that we get the extra distance out there."

Mr Creegan also stated that it should be able to run concurrently with the construction of the larger Dart+ West project. 

Catherine Murphy says the news would be most welcome in North Kildare.
