  • Submission to the Public Consultation on Extension of the Western Rail Corridor
    Ballyglunin Railway Restoration Project Submission to the public consultation on extension of the Western Rail Corridor 17 July 2019 Ballyglunin Railway Restoration Project Ballyglunin, Tuam, Co. Galway. Charity Number: CHY 20265 Email: [email protected] Page 1 of 4 Ballyglunin Railway Restoration Project 1. Introduction Ballyglunin Railway Restoration Project welcomes the inclusion by the Government in the Capital Plan of Phases 2 and 3 of the Western Rail Corridor linking Galway and Mayo, and we acknowledge that the railway will play a vital role in: Providing transport for workers in Galway city, Enabling greater access to education facilities and healthcare facilities Encouraging tourists to explore the wider western region with its many untapped tourism resources, Benefiting commercial enterprise. Allowing the development of Ballyglunin station as a major heritage tourism attraction We are confident that the independent review of the potential of the railway in the context of the Atlantic Economic Corridor will confirm the major contribution that the railway can make in terms of regional connectivity, linking Galway city with its natural hinterland in line with the National Planning Framework. Linking Westport, Ballina, Castlebar, Claremorris and Tuam by rail to Galway will have an enormous impact allowing direct rail travel to and from Limerick and Cork offering tourists proper access to the west and north-west for the first time which would help to balance the spread of tourists over the region as opposed to a concentration in Galway city as exists at present. 2. Background The Ballyglunin Station is situated 12km south of Tuam, and 14km north of the Athenry on the Western Rail Corridor.
