Belfast Grand Central station (originally the Belfast Transport Hub[5]) is a railway and bus station in the city centre of Belfast, Northern Ireland. It has replaced Great Victoria Street railway station and the Europa Buscentre.[6][7] It is built next to its predecessors, in a new neighbourhood called Weaver's Cross.[8] The first bus service, to Dublin, departed from the station on 8 September 2024.[9] Rail services are due to commence in October 2024[10], several months after the old railway station closed on 10 May 2024.[11]
