Announcement On Crusheen Rail Stop Expected This Year
Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description
An announcement on the reopening of the Crusheen rail stop is expected this year. At the first Clare County Council meeting of 2026, Maghera Fianna Fáil Councillor Pat Hayes has called on the Transport Minister to authorise the development of a train station at the site of the now-defunct stop "without any further delay". A socio-economic report commissioned by Killaloe Municipal District in 2024 found that the project would have a 15-year employment income impact of €25.5 million. Councillor Hayes says the case for the reinstatement of the stop has never been stronger.
