The article does have the feel of a paid piece.

Is it an article masquerading as a lamentation for the end of a traditional way of life?

We are presented with a simple rural man who tugs his forelock in acknowledgment of #ClimateChange while slamming #GreenPolitics in the form of #EamonRyan, a bete noire who appears to be living a luxe lifestyle in his mansion in #Dublin

Is Matt Corbett being used by the #Carbonarchy, the #IrishTimes and #journalist Keith Duggan?

Eamon Ryan couldn't have asked for a greater endorsement than to receive such criticism from the CEO of one of Europe's most polluting companies, whose business model is knowingly making climate change worse.

The #EamonRyan window boxes are providing something almost every day this summer. We have loads of basil all summer and chilis ready to harvest inside our South-facing windows too.

I'd like to suggest something to #EamonRyan and to our government - a #GrassyPaths scheme, to make some networks of roads literally that - grassed-over paths where people can walk and cycle and no cars are ever allowed. The cars can use the other roads #GrassyPaths

The first of several excoriating letters about Ireland's rail service, telling #EamonRyan to get the existing service working first before extending the lines

As Bus Éireann informed me, Transport for Ireland, and not Bus Éireann, updates the electronic bus signs (where they exist), and the two organisations don’t seem capable of communicating with each other, leaving passengers stranded without information.

While I wholeheartedly welcome plans to extend the rail network, maybe we should first address the inefficiencies of the existing network. Until there are frequent, dependable services and a bit of joined-up thinking, I can’t envisage how Mr Ryan will ever get us out of our cars. – Yours, etc,

Rail services – visions and reality
Island Strategic Rail Review
Thu Jul 20 2023 - 00:14

Sir, – I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when I read your article about the Island Strategic Rail Review (News, July 17th).

Minister for Transport Eamon Ryan calls for a significant modal shift from car to rail for Ireland to meet its emissions targets, but after years of travel on the Longford-Dublin commuter service, I can’t see that happening anytime soon. Here are some examples why.

If I want to attend an event in Dublin that runs later than 8.50pm, I miss the last train home, and there’s no workable park-and-ride facility on my route that would allow me to use rail for even part of my journey. If I were a shift worker, there’s no train to Dublin at weekends that gets me to work on time or home after a late shift. Bus Éireann is not a reliable alternative.

Buses to Dublin depart around the same time as the trains, so there’s no coverage at times when there’s no train and they are a much slower option. The bus service is also prone to poorly flagged, last-minute cancellations.

Maybe ebike allowances for travel should be at the same rate as car allowances for travel, as a green initiative? A lot of people who currently run a car because they get allowances would ditch the expensive thing and take to an ebike or ecargo bike if they got the same mileage #GreenParty #ClimateCrisis #MileagePayments #EamonRyan

Maybe #EamonRyan and #SimonCoveney could get together on a plan to lure #Brompton to open an #EbikeFactory in #Ireland to serve the #EU market
