Bus changes for the best

Reader John Goodacre refers to the changes to bus services in the Lisburn region (Write Back, September 15).



From June 30, passengers have benefited from a new bus station in Lisburn. At this time we took the opportunity to improve our local bus services.

To ensure our passengers were aware of these changes, we publicised them in the Press, posters, through local representatives and with public notices.

Mr Goodacre is correct that bus stops have been moved. However, we think the movement of bus stops in Lisburn has benefited services and passengers

While it would be too costly to have digital timetable displays at each bus stop, our timetable is well publicised so that passengers are aware of our services.

Hillsborough Old Road does not have bus stops simply because there is no service running along this road.

However, we will continue to monitor this situation.

The new bus centre gives customers a comfortable and dry wait and better information until 8pm.

There are very few services after this time. If you wish to comment on the new centre, please do not hesitate to contact us.
