A project as ambitious as Belfast Grand Central Station at Weavers Cross will create a fantastic first impression of Belfast as a progressive and confident capital city. In 2016 alone, there were an estimated 4.6 million overnight trips in Northern Ireland. This development will efficiently deliver regular travellers and visitors to the city centre and positively assist the ongoing development of the tourism sector.
End use employment – The boost in the region’s economy ultimately leads to many employment opportunities in related sectors, including the visitor economy, customer services, retail, facilities management, security, tertiary services and ultimately sustainable transport services.
The build and engineering of Belfast Grand Central Station and the wider development of Weavers Cross will lead directly to long term construction jobs and opportunities with the potential to last up to 15 years on the surrounding site.

In addition Social Value is about delivering real benefits to local communities.
These benefits include:
Belfast Grand Central Station project encourages local involvement to promote these opportunities and provide readiness in our local and neighbouring communities. The aim is to provide real training for real construction jobs.
