Transport in Belfast information


Transportation systems in the city of Belfast, Northern Ireland, include road, air, rail, and sea. It is still a relatively car-dependent city;[1] however, it is also served by a comprehensive rail and bus network. Belfast also ran electric trams prior to 1954.[2] The city has two major airports, and the Port of Belfast is the busiest ferry port on the island of Ireland.[3]
