Irish Rail do have lessons to learn about how they managed Ashtown Stables and the local consultations - looking forward to what I hope will be a constructive webinar this eve on the latest Ashtown proposals

@emer_currie1 Thanks so much again Emer. It was a pleasure having you at the yard today. The new foal loved the extra attention. We all look forward to seeing you again soon ☺️

[Save Ashtown Stables @SaveAshtown]

We were over the moon to have Emer here with us while we introduced the little one to his extended family for the first time. It's a special moment that we were delighted to share.

The new foal is 4th generation Ashtown and is the great-grandson of the famous Sapphire! 🐴

[Save Ashtown Stables @SaveAshtown]

An enormous thanks to @emer_currie1 for taking the time to visit this morning.
Emer has been incredibly supportive of the campaign and we are hugely grateful for the wonderful advice and help she has given us.

[Emer Currie @emer_currie1]

Day made.
Popped into @SaveAshtown Stables to catch up on the new Ashtown Rail proposals & thank the Reids for their incredible campaign…

And I met Molly’s 5 day old foal as she was introduced to the rest of the stables.
All the horses were as excited to meet her as I was.

@SFDublinCentral @MaryLouMcDonald @SaveAshtown Thank you very much for your support and help in saving the Ashtown stables

[Dublin Central SF @SFDublinCentral]

The DART+ West project has re-assessed

This is welcome news after @MaryLouMcDonald met with Ashtown stables and raised their concerns directly with Irish Rail who agreed to re-assess the direct impact on Ashtown Stables which has now been primarily removed

[Cllr. John Burtchaell- Solidarity @BurtchaellJohn]

Some great news to report on #AshtownStables.

The determined community campaign against the Dart + West plan to close the stables has yielded results and the new revised Ashtown preferred option leaves the stables intact.

[Ruth Coppinger @RuthCoppingerSP]

Great news for @SaveAshtown & for people power! #AshtownStables left out of the Dart West plan, no longer to be demolished. The stables garnered community support & successfully organised to challenge the preferred route. Glad of any support I & @BurtchaellJohn gave. #dubw

[Emer Currie @emer_currie1]

New proposals for Ashtown dealing with the closure of the level crossings have just been launched by Irish Rail.
Time to engage with the public, but the good news is Ashtown Stables is staying put.
Well done on an incredible campaign
Deadline 6 April https://t.co/tZ9gtiBY51

[Jack Chambers TD @jackfchambers]

A new option for Ashtown has been developed by @IrishRail as part of the DART + West project. This aims to preserve Ashtown Stables @SaveAshtown with other changes & is subject to consultation. See link below for ℹ & get submissions in before 6 April https://t.co/H4NCEUONhd
