Safety

Every day Translink transports approximately 65,000 pupils to and from school. Our aim is to provide a safe and efficient transport system to the community and we believe our local schools can play a role in assisting us to achieve this.

Translink have produced an Educational Safety DVD and Learning Pack for young people called 'Travel Safe'. This pack has been specifically developed for use by Key Stage 3 pupils and their teachers.

If you would like a 'Travel Safe' pack, contact your local District Manager (Bus), Rail Line Manager (Rail) or the Marketing Department, Central Station, Belfast, BT1 3PB, telephone 028 90899400 or complete the form on the following Travel Safe page.
