A selection of the winning images will now be on display at the North West Transport Hub for July and August, where members of the public are welcome to come and view them.

In total, 25 winning images are on public display by photographers from across Northern Ireland including Belfast, Limavady, Bangor, Ballymoney, Newtownabbey, Lisburn, Moira, Derry, Portadown, and Newry.

Speaking about the exhibition Diane McCourt from Translink said: “We are pleased to welcome Connections Photographic Exhibition to Derry. The exhibition showcases passengers, staff, and members of the public in a visual celebration of the day-to-day life of Translink from the perspective of the people who use our services.”

Diane McCourt spoke on the importance of public transport saying: “Public transport plays a leading role in connecting people whether for work, education, seeing family or spending time with friends. Our services and staff bring people and communities together every day and the exhibition showcases the faces and stories of connections made between family and friends, people commuting to work, events, or key life moments through thought-provoking images and captions. We would encourage people to take the time to visit the exhibition and to make it part of their journey and connections.”
