there's planning permission for the two dart lines that go out to the west of the city.

They're sitting there waiting to be started.

There's planning permission for Finglas Lewis.

There's planning permission for Metro.

Some of those are in further stages of procurement, but the dart lines to the west of the city

There's no procurement happening on those that I've seen yet.

And those are things that can make a real difference because it's that side of the region that are coming in using the M50.

And if those were initiated, and as you said at the start, they're going to take a long time for them to be initiated and could have a real change.

And recently enough, TIA, I said,

There are no more engineering solutions that they can put out to the M50.

And they're right.

They've done everything.

They've stretched that as much as they can.

And that is cold comfort for anybody that's sitting on the M50 right now.

I suppose that's in and around incident management.

When there are crashes that happen on the M50, that will be, I suppose, ramping up the amount of staff that the TII have out on the road.

It's not something that will be really difficult to do.

What impact it would have really in the long term, I would say it'd be minimal.

And as the traffic on that road is growing, it would negate that small benefit, I would imagine, relatively quickly.
