Dublin Docklands - Luas Tram System Extension

This project extends the Luas Red Line for 1.5km from Connolly Station, through the Docklands to the Point, serving existing and planned high-density commercial and residential developments.

This extension is provided for in the Dublin Transportation Office’s strategy ‘A Platform for Change’ which recommended an integrated transportation network linking the Docklands to the city centre. It is also provided for in the Dublin Docklands Development Authority Master Plan 2003.

Employment in the area served by this project is forecast to increase by almost 50% and population is forecast to more than double, by 2016, resulting in a large demand for trips both to and from the area. Line C1 adds an additional 3 million trips to the Luas network and removes over 1 million trips from the road network by 2016.
