Campaigning for a Circle Train Line around Belfast Metro Area using existing rail track and reopening the dormant Knockmore Line.
The Glider is not the only piece North Belfast is missing.

4/4 We need change. The proposed Belfast Circle Line could serve 300,000 people, linking key areas. It's time for a radical overhaul of our public transport system. Join us to build a connected, sustainable NI. greenpartyni.org/join #StormontScorecard

Now, how about we apply this revolutionary concept to the rest of Northern Ireland? Or is that too much to ask? 🌍💚 #PublicTransportMatters #GreenPartyNI #SustainableTravel

🚆 Oh wow, a 50% increase in Belfast-Dublin train passengers after doubling the service—who could’ve guessed? 🙃 Maybe investing in reliable, frequent, and affordable public transport actually works? Shocking.

People use trains when they’re reliable and frequent. The 50% jump in Belfast-Dublin rail passengers proves it. A Belfast Circle Line could unlock that same potential locally - boosting the economy and improving access to jobs and opportunities.
BUILD the Circle Line already!

Everyday I cycle the foreshore and think of how nuts it is that there are no rail stops from York St to Whiteabbey. All that population, retail, activities, within touching distance of a main line. State sponsored transport deprivation. 😞

Disappointed to see some heritage rail volunteers continue to attack the Belfast Circle Line campaign. Instead of working together to push for better rail solutions in NI, they’d rather tear down ideas that could benefit everyone. Constructive debate is welcome - trolling is not.

🚊Thinking Outside the Tracks: Alternative Solutions for the Belfast Circle Line 🚊
When people imagine new rail infrastructure, they often picture large-scale, traditional train models like those used by
@nirailways. But what if we thought beyond conventional methods?

Is this further proof that @translinkni.bsky.social and @deptinfra.bsky.social will be reopening the Knockmore Line(Antrim-Lisburn)?
@translinkni.bsky.social have plans for a new Ballast Cleaning Depot in Ballinderry.
Could a few Circle Line trains be parked there as well?

We're going to need a bigger bus...
When people say that "Belfast Intl Airport doesn't need a train service, the bus is good enough", show them this - an oversubscribed bus service.
BUILD the Circle Line already and connect Belfast Intl Airport with Belfast City Centre and Greater Belfast.

With a booming population, isn't it time Ballyclare was reconnected to @nirailways?
Ballyclare is <3 miles from Bleach Green Line. A spur from the line to a new station at bottom of the Mill Road could be built for less than a Ballynure Bypass.

#BelfastTraffic: imagine if more people who lived in the Circle on the left had access to the "Circle" on the right?

Maybe the DFI could help us use public transport by providing it, such as @circlelinebt.bsky.social No point constantly telling people to get on trains and buses when the services don't join up
