New £14m City Train Station

Translink has confirmed that Newry's new £14.7m railway station will open next month.

The facility is expected to bolster the city's already thriving cross-border trade links, prompted by the strengthened Euro.

It will also provide a more efficient gateway to those travelling to Belfast and Dublin.

Clive Bradberry, Translink infrastructure executive, said: "The work on the new station has continued to progress on budget and on schedule and Newry customers will soon be enjoying a brand new public transport experience.

"We are committed to giving first class amenities and excellent customer service and this really is another step forward in providing a quality public transport system for everyone.

"The landmark building will also be in keeping with the city’s modern image as a flourishing and vibrant city.

"I would like to thank all our customers for their patience during this work and hope they will be impressed."

New access roads to the station were constructed as part of the scheme, which also lead to an additional park and ride facility.

Rail passengers have been advised that the current access route via Camlough Road and Station Road is no longer available as the existing car park will be closed.
