Metro/Glider

The 600 service to Belfast City airport will drop to an hourly frequency.

Northern Ireland Railways

Normal Saturday Service, this is a well understood timetable which will maintain a reduced frequency service on all routes. Given the complexity of timetable changes on the Railway it is only possible to move to a timetable which has already been tested from a safety perspective.
