Mayor calls on residents to get on-board Bus + Train Week
Bus + Train Week, a Northern Ireland-wide campaign, is a celebration of public transport and its benefits to the community. Last year saw more than 140,000 additional journeys made on-board buses and trains during the week long celebrations.
Councillor Wales said: “Bus and Train Week is a great opportunity for residents in the Mid and East Antrim Borough Council area to leave the car at home and commit to the bus or train, whether it’s planning a day out with the family or commuting to work.
