  • Railway Investment Priorisation Strategy
    CONTENTS Ministerial Foreword In the last few years, there has been a significant upturn in rail passenger growth in Northern Ireland. Passenger numbers have almost doubled since 2002. Whilst our railway service is not extensive, its role is increasing as a travel mode of choice in our transportation network. In 2013, I published a consultation paper inviting views on what should be the priorities for future investment in our railways network. This attracted a wide variety of informed responses from which I have developed this Strategy setting out a vision and strategic direction for future railways investment over the next 20 years and beyond. It will be important, in the present period of public expenditure restraint, to use whatever resources are available to sustain and make best use of the current railway system. However, I am convinced that rail travel can offer a safe, comfortable and efficient option, particularly for commuters and inter-city passengers. As and when additional resources become available, we should be ready to develop our rail network where there is the greatest potential for further passenger growth. This Strategy offers such a robust approach. I am particularly keen to extend the option of rail travel to commuters from mid-Ulster and to populations in the south and west within the catchments of Armagh and Dungannon. However, progress will depend on the amount of funding that can be made available from the Executive’s budget and, where possible, from European grant programmes. If delivered, this ambitious Strategy would allow for a significant enhancement of existing rail capacity, preparation for the future electrification of the network and the first major extensions to the railway since the closing of lines following the Benson Report in 1963.

In Britain, as in their other provinces, the Romans constructed a comprehensive network of paved trunk roads (i.e. surfaced highways) during their nearly four centuries of occupation (43 - 410 AD). This article focuses on the ca. 2,000 mi (3,200 km) of Roman roads in Britain shown on the Ordnance Survey's Map of Roman Britain.[1] This contains the most accurate and up-to-date layout of certain and probable routes that is readily available to the general public. The pre-Roman Britons used mostly unpaved trackways for their communications, including very ancient ones running along elevated ridges of hills, such as the South Downs Way, now a public long-distance footpath.
