2) Records or documents relating to the reliability and punctuality of DART services and in cases where trains were late, how many minutes they were late by. For the same dates

3) At Pearse Station there are several signs that display the reliability and punctuality of DART services from 13/08/2018 - 09/09/2018. I am seeking any documents or records that were used to quantify the information displayed on these signs. i.e. What records were used to come to the conclusion that 93.3% of DART services were punctual during this period.
I would prefer to receive this information electronically. I will accept paper copies if this is not possible.

Correspondence and documentation since 2008 concerning:

known collectively as the 'Alstom' or 'GEC Alsthom' units.

1. Commuter railcar carriages 2609, 2701–2724/2726, 2751, 2753, known
collectively as the 2700 units.

IE_FOI_191

Please provide details of any draft timetables and business cases for potential improved timetables for services to Greystones. It does for example seem that it is possible to have 2tph Commuter service as far as Wicklow in both directions at peak or at least this frequency in peak direction, with a 1 train per hour all day service to Wicklow seeming more than feasible. This would take a lot of traffic of the roads and Greystones would see a maximum of 25mins between services at peak, also gaining a significant number of seats to trains that at the moment do not have any space, for a town that is rapidly growing.

I would also ask for any business plan that has been produced for delivering a two track solution between Bray and Greystones and any business plan for a two track and electrification solution between Greystones and Wicklow, which would facilitate a high frequency service. It is presumably feasible to dig a tunnel from Bray to Greystones and the Irish government must have considered this at some time.
