Development
The station was initially built in 2009 for €6 million.[5] It was the last of a series of new and upgraded stations to be built on the route to improve commuter services from the south-west of Dublin.[6][7]
The station remained unopened as of 2022, with the railway network operator Iarnród Éireann stating that expected local development did not occur for economic reasons, and "there was a further delay due to the [COVID-19] pandemic".[8]
It was reported in mid-2022 that the station would need refurbishment at a cost of €3.8 million before an anticipated station opening in late 2023, fourteen years after its original completion.[8] By early 2023, it was suggested that this refurbishment could take place between March and November 2023, with the station then proposed to open in December 2023.[1] However, as of August 2023, it was reported that the opening would be delayed by at least "six more months".[9] A draft Irish Rail timetable, available online as of September 2023, suggested that Kishoge could open during 2024.[10]
