Lisburn West is a proposed railway station planned for the Knockmore area of Lisburn, County Antrim, Northern Ireland.[1] Originally proposed in 2014,[2] early plans suggested that it would serve the Belfast–Newry railway line between Lisburn and Moira.

After Translink bought and demolished buildings on a former South Eastern Regional College site outside Lisburn, the company reportedly stated that station development works would commence "between late 2015 and early 2016".[2] However, while plans were reportedly subsequently "resurrected", as of 2019 the proposed station site "remained vacant".[2]
