DRIVING GROWTH: Aodh Hannon (left) of Hannon Coach has revealed plans to expand the companys direct luxury coach service between Belfast and Glasgow to other towns across Northern Ireland. The County Armagh-based coach operator launched its Glasgow Express to and from Belfast in February this year and, following a highly successful first six months, has now submitted applications to introduce further direct services between the popular Scottish city and many of Northern Irelands main towns, including Enniskillen, Coleraine, Ballymena, Derry~Londonderry, Cookstown, Strabane and Newcastle. Stena Lines Ian Baillie (centre) reported that the ferry company has experienced a 7.5% increase in coach traffic to Glasgow since Hannon Coach launched the Glasgow Express service which operates twice daily in both directions and is the only direct city to city through-coach service (i.e. using the same coach for the entire journey) from Northern Ireland. Also in the picture is driver Jim McAlorum.
