Station Enhancements
As part of our commitment to deliver a better rail service, we are carrying out a programme of station enhancements over the coming months.
Work is already being carried out to enhance our stations on the Bangor & Portadown lines (Package 1). Work is now commencing on the Larne* and Derry** lines (Package 2) and will last until Autumn 2008.
While most of the work is being carried out during the day, some work is being carried out at night; however we will make every effort to ensure that any noise is kept to a minimum. Should you have any complaints or difficulties at night, you can contact our contractor, Cleary Contracting Ltd. on 028 9447 2387 or 07811180512.
