Translink's 'Grand Connection' Roadshow will return to Belfast next week to showcase the benefits of the new Belfast Grand Central Station and present its plans to passengers.
Belfast Grand Central Station, a state-of-the-art transport hub for trains, coaches and buses, is set to open this autumn. This flagship project, delivered by Translink, represents a major advancement in Northern Ireland's public transport system.
People who want to hear more about the new station can visit with Translink staff at the following city locations from next Thursday:
• 22nd August: 12 pm-4 pm, Grove Leisure Centre
• 23rd August: 11 am-7 pm, Europa Bus Centre
• 24th August: 9 am-5 pm, Victoria Square
David Cowan, Translink’s Director of Commercial Operations, said: "Public excitement and anticipation is building around the opening of this world class facility. Ten times larger than current facilities, it will be a game changer helping inspire and reimagine the city – one where more people travel on public transport, walk, wheel and cycle.
"The hub will be a major international gateway to and from the rest of the world with enhanced connectivity across Northern Ireland, cross border and local airports creating a better connected, cleaner and healthier city for everyone.
"Beyond transportation, this new facility will be a new destination in the heart of the city where people meet thanks to a range of popular hospitality and retail outlets offering a unique blend of convenience and leisure.
"The Grand Connection Roadshow gives members of the public the opportunity to ask any questions and people will get a taste of what the new station will look like through a mix of drone footage and computer-generated images.
"We're looking forward to chatting to as many people as possible at the Grand Connection Roadshow so come along and find out more and hopefully it will be a fun visit for all ages as well as informative."
As the roadshow nears its end, it will have visited over 30 bus and train stations, community hubs, leisure centres and shopping centres across Northern Ireland throughout the summer.
