Between 10 and 20 people disembark at Rosslare port every day, how can they say this is not needed? We rely on this service to get our child from school

Bus route from Dublin already shelved. Taking rail route away is basically saying only car drivers are welcome in SE. This is such a short term, irresponsible, isolating perspective. IMPROVE DON'T REMOVE

I use the Wexford train on a regular basis this is a valuable service for the town. The bus does not provide the same comforts or facilities.. it is vital that this important service is retained.

This train line is essential not only to working people in Wexford, students heading to Dublin, the many many tourists coming from to and from Wexford. Don't close the line. Sincerely. Patricia O'Brien.

One of the most scenic train routes in the country. Save this train line, essential service for the county

Stop the long neglect and mismanagement of the wexford /rosslare train service. Synchronisation of train times with ferry arrivals is a no brainer that somehow hasn't happened to date. Let us not lose more rail infrastructure.

The people of Wexford County deserve to have safe, working lines going North & West. Running on time, at useful times and at decent speeds. It should not take over two hours to get to Dublin by train. It should be faster travel than by car. An improved train service should mean people could use their technology on the way to work arrive in Dublin or Waterford in good time to head to work, college or shop and come back to Wexford afterwards without necessity of leaving early. Efficient services would mean people could commute to work and return in good time of an evening and still live in Wexford. The line should be used to the maximum, carry freight & goods from Rosslare Harbour across the country. Breathing life back into local industry, the Harbour and Wexford in general. Tourism would benefit too. The route from Wexford to Dublin is one of the most beautiful in Ireland. Efficient travel between the Harbour & the capital would encourage tourists. The rail line managed and run properly with the intention of making money would be an asset to the whole of Wexford County.
