The route alignment is 3.9km in length running from the existing green line terminus at broombridge to a new terminus at charlestown, primarily located within the administrative area of dublin city council(dcc) with the exception of the proposed charlestown terminus, which isin the administrative area of fingal county council (fcc). The proposed scheme starts at the existing luas stabling area just south of the current broombridge stop where the hamilton depot will be enlarged with the addition of four new track lines in order to accommodate an increase in light rail vehicle (lrv) storage. The track alignment will cross over the existing iarnród éireann maynooth line and royal canal via a bridge structure, continue along broombridge road, cross the tolka river via another bridge structure and continue through tolka valley park. The alignment will cross tolka valley road and continue along the former finglaswood stream valley to arrive at st helena’s stop before crossing to farnham pitches which will be modified to accommodate the scheme. The line will continue through the park and cross wellmount road into patrickswell place, where the existing access road will be realigned. The alignment will proceed between the existing ravens court development and finglas garda station to arrive at finglas village stop. The line will then run parallel to the n2 road before crossing the existing roundabout which will be replaced with an at grade signalised junction. A multi-storey park and ride structure will be constructed in this area. The alignment will then turn onto st margaret’s road where the st margaret’s stop will be located. The route will continue northwards before arriving at the charlestown terminus where the existing junction with melville road will be reconfigured. Abp ref: 321278-24 website:www. Luasfinglasro. Ie
