Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 5 April 2022
206. Deputy Emer Higgins asked the Minister for Transport when Kishogue rail station will open resulting in a local train service for commuters in Lucan, County Dublin; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [17795/22]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs the Deputy may be aware, the National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for the planning and development of public transport infrastructure in the Greater Dublin Area including, in consultation with Iarnród Éireann (IÉ), Kishogue station.
I am informed by the NTA that various works need to be undertaken by IÉ before Kishogue Station can be brought into use. It is anticipated that the necessary works will be completed in the latter half of 2022. However, at this stage it is too soon to indicate when the new station will be operational.
