Bus and rail stations to be assessed by TIDY NI

The ‘TIDY Translink Awards’ recognise the efforts of Translink employees who go the extra mile in creating a more attractive bus and rail network. Stations are rigorously assessed by TIDY Northern Ireland in their bid to achieve a Bronze, Silver, Gold or Platinum TIDY award standard.

Translink group environmental manager Andy Bate says the company has seen a big improvement in facilities across the network since the Awards first took place back in 2007: “There is no doubt that over the past six years our employees have made a concerted effort to ensure facilities are clean, tidy and environmentally-friendly. In fact, last year we achieved our best-ever set of results. Attractive facilities can be enjoyed by both our employees and customers and have contributed to the growing numbers of people travelling with us.

“We are again asking employees to take those extra steps that will ensure they maintain or exceed last year’s strong set of results. We also hope our passengers will continue to support our efforts to provide attractive facilities in their area,” said Andy.
