Maynooth Railway Station Accessibility Upgrade
CLIENT: Iarnród Éireann/Irish Rail
DATE: Jan 2026
LOCATION: Maynooth, Co. Kildare
Maynooth Railway Station had long been identified by Irish Rail as a priority location for accessibility enhancement, with increasing passenger numbers, a busy commuter catchment, and a growing university population placing pressure on an ageing station layout.
To help deliver a modern, fully inclusive transport hub, Irish Rail selected Global Rail Services Ltd for our proven expertise in complex station upgrades, our strong track record of delivering works within live operational environments, and our ability to coordinate multidisciplinary programmes under tight possession constraints.
The completed upgrade was formally opened by Councillor Carmel Kelly, Mary Considine (CEO of Irish Rail), senior Irish Rail representatives, and Department of Transport officials including Minister James Lawless – reflecting the strategic importance of this project within Irish Rail’s national commitment to improving step‑free access and delivering a safer, more intuitive travel experience for all passengers.
