Concerns have been raised with the entrance and the lift.
The lack of accessibility at a Laois train station is being described as an 'absolute scandal.'
Fine Gael Councillor Thomasina Connell says wheelchair users are being forced to find alternatives to Portlaoise Train Station as a result.
Locals have informed her the lift is often not working, and there are concerns with the steep incline towards the Mountmellick Road entrance.
The Local Election Candidate says doing the work to make Portlaoise train station accessible is essential:
