History

The station was planned by Fingal County Council as part of Hansfield Strategic Development Zone. While the railway line was opened in September 2010 as planned, Hansfield station remained closed because no road access to the station from the surrounding housing estates existed. When funding was provided in 2011 for the access road, Iarnród Éireann took possession of land to proceed. The station opened on Friday 28 June 2013.
