Wexford's O'Hanrahan Station 'On Track'

Wexford Borough Council is undertaking development works at O'Hanrahan Railway Station, Redmond Square to make it more accessible to the disabled.

Works will include a safer bus stop, ramped crossings and improved disabled access to the station.

For the duration of the works, an alternative pedestrian access to the station will be in operation and the route will be signposted. The set down point has been temporarily moved to the McCauley's car park.

The bus stop has also been relocated to the south side of Redmond Square adjacent to O'Briens Sandwich Bar and McCauleys Chemist.

Motorists should also take note that there may be delays for the duration of the works. (CD)
