I am totally against the planned railway line between Navan Dunboyne. This plan does not adequately address the need for sustainable transport in the most populated areas including Ashbourne, Trim, Ratoath and Kells.
The plan would destroy a massive section of mature woodland. It would split the estate in half thereby stopping the free movement of animals on the reserve. This would do great damage to the rewilding project. Ireland has no other major rewilding project and no government plans for any. This is a massive issue in Ireland and globally and it is far more important to keep this reserve than it is to build a railway line to the small village of Kilmessan.
