Major upgrades planned for Oranmore railway station
Irish Rail is undertaking significant enhancements at Oranmore Station to double service frequency through new track and a longer platform. Essential construction works will impact limited parking spaces from May 2026 into summer 2027 while trains continue running.
Oranmore Station Enhancement Project
Passengers using Oranmore Station are advised that essential improvement works will commence on Monday, 18th May 2026 and continue through the summer of 2027. During this period, a small number of parking spaces within the station car park will be temporarily unavailable to facilitate construction.
This major infrastructure project aims to deliver a new one-kilometre section of track and an additional 185-metre-long platform. These upgrades are designed to support a doubling of service frequency at the station, improving connectivity for local commuters. Current rail services will continue to operate as normal throughout the duration of these essential works.
Irish Rail has apologised in advance for any inconvenience caused to road users and passengers during this critical phase of development.
