Irish Rail has announced that train stations in Wicklow, Kildare and South Dublin are to benefit from upgrade works.

All rail users need a service they can rely on.

Starting this month, Iarnród Éireann will undertake works at 22 stations to improve accessibility.

An additional €2million was allocated from my Department to fast track this programme.

Bray, Shankill, Booterstown, Glenageary, Monasterevin and Leixlip are among 22 stations nationwide that will become more accessible for passengers with reduced mobility.

The plan will see work done to improve lifts and escalators and the installation of a fully accessible toilet at Connolly Station in Dublin.

Work on the renewal programme worth €5.8 million is expected to be completed by the end of the year.
