Not a good reason to leave the car at home..
Review of Ulsterbus by
fuzzibear
Advantages: Don't have to fight lanes of traffic in Belfast
Disadvantages: Late, dirty buses, rude staff
Translink, the owner of both Ulsterbus and Northern Ireland railways is running ads at the minute to leave the car at home and get the bus, fair enough if they could provide us with a service that would persuade me to leave my car at home.
Ulsterbus have been running the bus service within Northern Ireland since 1967, and operate over 1000 buses across the province. They regularly update their bus stock, and most coaches, especially the Goldliner ...

Ulsterbus
Review of Ulsterbus by
stevNI
Advantages: Public Transport
Disadvantages: Old, dirty buses
...and operating approximately 1,100 buses Ulsterbus serves the whole of Northern Ireland. There were 65 million journeys on Ulsterbus and Metro (Ulsterbus services in Belfast) so they must be doing something right, right?. For many years and still to a certain extent today a journey on ulsterbus is more like taking a journey back 25 years!
Many of the buses are old and dirty and are used for the daily transportation of 65,000 children to and from ...

Ulsterbus, good but not good enough
Review of Ulsterbus by
funkazzy11
Advantages: You don't have to concentrate on driving. Express service comfy!
Disadvantages: often late, infrequent services
I often use Ulsterbus to commute into Belfast to study. This is a handy service for myself as there is a great Translink Student discount card. It costs £7 iniatally and you can use on Ulsterbus or on Northern Ireland railways. It entitles you to between 10 and 15% discount on your journey costs.
Another plus point is that of the express services. The buses are clean and comfortable and these do run on time, Not good when you are running down the ...

No Threat....No Service
Review of Ulsterbus by
Roobear
Advantages: Student Discounts
Disadvantages: Late...Late....Late
In Northern Ireland,If you don't have your own transport then you must turn to the public transport provided by Translink transport company. Translink owns Ulsterbus, Northern Ireland Railways (NIR) and Citybus. So, as a person who uses public transport regularly....using all of these avenues I have a lot of experience to be able to make a comment!
Because of this monopoly of the transport service Translink can be as late, as rude and deliver the ...
