Lisburn West is a proposed railway station planned for the Knockmore area of Lisburn, County Antrim, Northern Ireland.[1] It would serve the Belfast–Newry railway line between Lisburn and Moira and possibly the Lisburn–Antrim railway line if it is reopened in the future.

History

The station development was announced in 2014, when Translink bought the South Eastern Regional College just outside Lisburn and demolished it in apparent preparation of the opening of the station. The work was scheduled to begin at the end of 2015 and complete during 2016, however, as of September 2016, no further announcements have been made and no construction has begun.
