The halt’s name. The BRT buses will make fewer stops than the traditional bus service. The halt has a broad local name rather than the usual “church”, “school”, “telephone exchange” etc.

Glider passengers, Ballyhackamore, Belfast (September 2018)
On the first day of the rapid transit bus service from Dundonald to Poleglass and the city centre to the Titanic Quarter, passengers await the arrival of the delayed 08.37 Dundonald - May Street. Such was the thrill and anticipation of this historic event that many had allowed three “red buses” to pass without boarding.
