The brand-new service will run through Kilcoole, Wicklow, Rathdrum, Arklow, and Gorey. It will also provide an additional service for customers travelling to/from Tara St, Pearse, Dun Laoghaire, Bray, and Greystones Stations.
The new services were the subject of the greatest feedback in last autumn’s timetable consultation, in which over 1,500 people participated.
An Irish Rail spokesperson said: "We are delighted to introduce this new service, which will be warmly welcomed by commuters on the route. Enhancing services across our network to meet customer demand is a key priority for us, and we look forward to enhancing services on other routes in the future, as new driver training and new fleet allows."
