to develop and enhance the Metropolitan Transport Corridor Network; to improve public transport service in the Belfast Metropolitan Area; to manage travel demand within the Belfast Metropolitan Area (SPG-BMA 3-5)
The Belfast Metropolitan Area (BMA) is the largest hub on the transportation network and a major regional gateway. Gateways serve as important interchange points, connecting ports and airports to the internal transport network. The BMA presents the greatest challenge in transportation terms and the best opportunity to achieve improved integration of transportation with land use. To facilitate this, the Belfast Metropolitan Area Plan (BMAP) includes transport proposals informed and supported by the Belfast Metropolitan Transport Plan (BMTP).
