Buses & Trains

For everyone’s safety, walk, don’t run.
Let people off before you get on.
Say where you are going and, if possible, have the correct fare for your journey.
Speed up boarding times and save money by using the cash-free Smartlink Card, available for Metro and Ulsterbus journeys.
If you have a concessionary pass, show it when you buy a ticket.
Hold on to the handrails provided when you stand or move down the vehicle.
Sit down when there are seats available.
Keep your ticket ready for inspection at all times.
Do not put your feet on seats.
Please do not smoke on the bus or train.
Keep your belongings with you at all times – do not let your luggage block the aisle.
Help us to keep your trains and buses clean and tidy by refraining from dropping litter.
Please give up a priority elderly or disabled person’s seat if someone needs it.

Trains

When waiting for a train, stay behind the yellow lines on the platform.
Make sure that the train has stopped before you try to open a door.
When boarding a train at unstaffed stations, please buy your ticket from the conductor on the train.

Buses

At a bus stop, signal clearly to the driver that you want to get on.
When you want to get off the bus, use the bell to tell the driver to stop at the next bus stop.
There is room for two buggies on board. Others must be folded away.
Stay behind the yellow line while the bus is moving so that you don’t distract the driver.
