Future developments
As of 2024, Iarnród Éireann were developing Ceannt Station, Galway to have five platforms,[2] and developing a passing loop and second platform at Oranmore Station.[3]
Under the Transport 21 plan, service is also planned between Tuam and Galway via the closed line to Claremorris. However, funding for this has not been identified and no Railway Order has been sought.[citation needed]
