Passengers are reporting significant overcrowding on Rosslare-Dublin services ever since the increase in fuel prices. Rail is the solution, but we need increased capacity and investment on this line. We need to continue to facilitate people to make the switch from 🚘 to 🚆.
Dublin to Rosslare line is reopening between Greystones and Wicklow following clearance of extensive debris on the line. Full services expected for today.

We’re currently attending a meeting in Arklow, organised by @malcolmbyrne.bsky.social covering public transport issues between Wexford/Wicklow and Dublin.
Increased rail and bus services are crucial in this region.
Many rail users in the south-east travel to and from train stations using both bike share schemes & their own bikes.
Government should be encouraging people to travel using public transport and active travel as opposed to discouraging them doing so with unscientific, knee-jerk legislation.
The population of Wexford's towns has grown hugely in the last 2 decades. Since 2005, Gorey has had a 60% population increase(!), Enniscorthy 30%, Rosslare Harbour 52% - the rail services on offer in Wexford have not kept up with this growth.
Recent passenger statistics reveal a surge in demand along the Rosslare-Dublin rail line since 2019
The latest figures show explosive growth across all stations with Gorey experiencing an increase of 70%

Waterford (population 60,079) & Wexford (pop. 21,524) can easily sustain a rail service between them. In Scotland there are 8 daily trains between Fort William (pop. 15,757) and Mallaig (pop. 701). The South East has the existing infrastructure to deliver a top class rail network.
