None. They aren't prepared to fund upgrade/existing lines. Lots of talk but no action. Car is king in this country. Since the private sector took over, nothing that doesn't make a profit will be invested in. The ' public service' ethos has gone. They won't fund a loss leader.
Anyway people who use these old lines as cycle paths, jogging routes, dog walks would be outraged if they're suddenly kicked off them !
