Belfast Interchange
A new gateway to Belfast
The feasibility for redeveloping and re-orientating the Queen Victoria Street Station and its hinterland offers the opportunity to establish a new state of the art public transport interchange in Belfast. This is an exciting and one-off opportunity of enormous strategic importance for the Northern Ireland Transport Holding Company Group and the City of Belfast. The project creates a world-class public transport amenity, as well as releasing land and buildings that have significant development opportunities.
This mixed use scheme will serve as a new gateway to Belfast offering much improved train and bus commuter facilities, while also creating a sense of place, clearer way finding and a vibrant public realm. The project intends to fully integrate the passenger flows into the fabric of the city and explore the scope for other uses in and around the station area.
The study will also consider the possibilities of Belfast’s Central Station and how the potential redevelopment of the two stations might jointly benefit one another.
