The Irish Post

Forget planes. Forget ferries. We could soon be traveling from Dublin to London by train. Well, that is if a group of Irish architects have their way. The Irish group has designed a bridge connecting Rosslare to Fishguard as well as highspeed trains which would travel from Dublin to London in two and a half hours before heading on to Paris. The project entitled ElastiCity is being showcased in Venice as part of the world-famous international Biennale Architectural Show. It forms part of a major exhibition which has been hailed as one of Ireland’s most ambitious architectural shows ever. A spokesperson for the project said: "Dublin to London is the world’s second busiest air route and short-haul flights are fuel-inefficient. Build a bridge from Rosslare to Fishguard and high-speed trains which travel Dublin-London in 2.5 hours and on to Paris.
