Bridgetown Halt

Bridgetown railway station or Bridgetown halt (Irish: Baile an Droichid) served the village of Bridgetown, County Wexford, Ireland. It was unstaffed and accessible only via a picket gate.

History

The station opened on 1 August 1906 and closed on 18 September 2010. The rail service was replaced by a revised Bus Éireann route 370 from Monday 20 September 2010: Wexford Bus operate a shuttle bus service to Wexford and Kilmore Quay three times a day (two on Wednesday and no Sunday service). A fourth service between Kilmore Quay and the town in each direction avoids the village. Infrequent Bus Éireann route 381 (Blackhall-Wexford) and 383 (Kilmore Quay-Wexford) also serve Bridgetown.
