As 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 extensive work is needed by IÉ before Kishogue Station can be brought into use, including meeting present day accessibility and systems requirements which are above and beyond the original requirements. 

The investment will total circa €3.8 million and it is anticipated that the station will become operational for the public in 2023.
