Translink train timetable in Northern Ireland to return to normal

Translink has announced that the NI Railways timetable will be enhanced from June 14.

It will return to the pre- coronavirus, Monday to Friday full schedule.

This will provide increased capacity and timetable options for passengers, with a range of safety measures in place to keep staff and customers safe.

Service frequency will also be increased in the evening and morning peaks.

Translink’s Director of Service Operations, Ian Campbell, said: “We are ready to welcome our passengers back, in the knowledge that we have robust arrangements in place to ensure our customers are safe. These include enhanced cleaning regimes on board trains and in stations including the use of anti-viral fogging technology and wiping down touch points; clear signage and customer flows; good ventilation on board services; hand sanitiser units at main stations; a no-change policy and contactless payments, and mandatory wearing of face coverings (unless exempt).

“We are also providing additional information through digital technology, our website, journey planner and social media channels, advising passengers of the quieter times to travel and which services are busier."

Passengers are advised to allow extra time for their journeys particularly when services are busier and wait for the next service should on-board capacity be reached.

All timetables are available on Translink’s website www.translink.co.uk or Journey Planner. Passengers are advised to check their specific journey in advance of travel.
