Éireann has unveiled details of the Emerging Preferred Option for Phase 2 of the Cork Area Commuter Rail Programme which includes proposals for eight new stations, a new fleet maintenance depot and full electrification of the network to support more frequent, reliable and sustainable rail transport for Cork.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>\nCommunities across Cork are invited to give their feedback on the proposed plans, part of the broader Cork Area Commuter Rail Programme, which will ultimately provide for trains operating up to every 10 minutes across each of the three commuter lines to Mallow, Midleton and Cobh.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>\nThis non-statutory public consultation is outlining proposals which will ultimately, when the full programme of works i\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>s completed, support up to 16 million passenger journeys a year once completed, including details on:\u003C/p>\n\u003Cul>\n  \u003Cli>Eight new stations for Cork including Blarney/Stoneview, Monard, Blackpool/Kilbarry, Tivoli, Dunkettle, Ballynoe, Carrigtwohill West and Water-Rock\u003C/li>\n  \u003Cli>Electrification of the Cork rail network to support a new electric train fleet, reduce congestion and cut transport carbon emissions\u003C/li>\n  \u003Cli>A new depot at Ballyrichard More, ideally positioned on the rail network to support planned service expansion and cater for the required electrified fleet\u003C/li>\n  \u003Cli>Two strategic Park &amp; Rides at Blarney/Stoneview and Dunkettle which will streamline connections from surrounding areas\u003C/li>\n  \u003Cli>Station upgrades to Mallow, Midleton and Cobh to ensure improved accessibility and provide for expected future capacity increases at these three key stations\u003C/li>\n  \u003Cli>Better

O'Brien\u003C/strong>, said:\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>“This project will help transform commuter rail services in Cork. In addition to areas that already have a train service, such as Cobh, Midleton and Mallow, the project’s new stations will bring rail to more communities in the growing suburbs to the north of the City, as well as locations such as Tivoli and Dunkettle to the east. The project will provide all of these areas with a frequent, reliable and sustainable transport service that will improve access to and from the city, in line with the Government’s objectives. Taken alongside the major refurbishments works underway in Galway Ceannt Station, and the new train station under construction in Waterford, today’s consultation once again shows the real focus that this Government has on delivering transport projects across the country.\"\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>\"I encourage everyone to read these proposals and take part in this consultation.”\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Minister of State with responsibility for International and Road Transport, Logistics, Rail and Ports, Seán Canney\u003C/strong>, said:\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>“I am pleased to see the progress being made on the Cork Area Commuter Rail Programme. Phase 1 of the Programme is progressing well, with some elements such as the new platform at Kent station already completed. I was delighted to visit the station recently, to see the work at firsthand. The launch of this public consultation today shows how we can build on this work, adding new stations and electrifying the Cork Commuter Rail network. What we see here in Cork, and in our rail projects progressing across the country, is that by investing in efficient and reliable public transport, we can improve passengers’ travel experience, and help people make the shift to more sustainable transport modes.”\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>\n\u003Cstrong>Minister of State with responsibility for Rural Transport, Jerry Buttimer\u003C/strong>, who attended the launch, said:\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>“I am delighted to be here in Cork at the launch of this public consultation for Phase 2 of the Cork Area Commuter Rail Programme. In April, we saw the opening of the new through platform here at Kent Station, while just a few miles to the east construction works are already underway, adding a second track to the line between Glounthaune and Midleton, as part of Phase 1 of the Programme\".\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>“Phase 2 of the Programme, for which we launch the public consultation today, will be transformational, offering a major boost in rail access to communities across Cork. &nbsp;This will be a great benefit to the county and I encourage everyone to get involved.”&nbsp;\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>\n\u003Cstrong>NTA Head of Rail Investment Marcello Corsi\u003C/strong> said:\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>\"NTA is very happy to see these proposals making such progress.
