===Buses=== Most public transport in Northern Ireland is operated by the subsidiaries of [[Translink (Northern Ireland)|Translink]]. Originally the city's internal bus network was run by [[Ulsterbus]], which still provides the city's connections with other towns in Northern Ireland. The city's buses are now run by [[Ulsterbus Foyle]],<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.translink.co.uk/20060904newulsterbusfoyle.asp |title=All-new Ulsterbus Foyle service takes to the roads |date=4 September 2006 |work=Translink.co.uk |publisher=[[Translink (Northern Ireland)|Translink]] / Morrow Communications |first1=Keelin |last1=Haughey |first2=Dana |last2=McCusker |access-date=22 September 2006 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070311165354/http://www.translink.co.uk/20060904newulsterbusfoyle.asp |archive-date=11 March 2007 |url-status=dead}} Press release.</ref> just as [[Metro (Belfast)|Translink Metro]] now provides the bus service in Belfast. The Ulsterbus Foyle network offers 13 routes across the city into the suburban areas, excluding an Easibus link which connects to the Waterside and [[Drumahoe]],<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.translink.co.uk/present/IndexOpSvc.asp#FOY |title=Foyle Area Ulsterbus routes |access-date=15 June 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080527090847/http://www.translink.co.uk/present/IndexOpSvc.asp#FOY |archive-date=27 May 2008 |url-status=dead}}</ref> and a free Rail Link Bus runs from the Waterside Railway Station to the city centre. All buses leave from the Foyle Street Bus Station in the city centre. Long-distance buses depart from Foyle Street Bus Station to destinations throughout Ireland. Buses are operated by both [[Ulsterbus]] and [[Bus Éireann]] on cross-border routes. [[Londonderry and Lough Swilly Railway|Lough Swilly]] formerly operated buses to [[County Donegal]], but the company entered liquidation and is no longer in operation. There is a half-hourly service to [[Belfast]] every day, called the Maiden City Flyer, which is the Goldline Express flagship route. There are hourly services to [[Strabane]], [[Omagh]], [[Coleraine]], [[Letterkenny]] and [[Buncrana]], and up to twelve services a day to bring people to [[Dublin]]. There is a daily service to [[Sligo]], [[Galway]], [[Shannon Airport]] and [[Limerick]]. [[TFI Local Link]] provides additional cross-border public transport routes, with route '''244''' <small>([[Moville]]/Derry)</small>,<ref name="Carndonagh to Derry">{{Cite web |title=125908 SITT TT 952 Carndonagh to Derry 4pg DL |url=https://locallinkdsl.ie/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/952-Carndonagh-to-Derry-4pg-DL.pdf |access-date=24 August 2023 |work=Local Link Donegal-Sligo-Leitrim}}</ref> '''245''' <small>([[Greencastle, County Donegal|Greencastle]]/Derry)</small>,<ref>{{Cite web |title=Greencastle-to-Derry.jpg |url=https://locallinkdsl.ie/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Greencastle-to-Derry.jpg |access-date=24 August 2023 |work=Local Link Donegal-Sligo-Leitrim |format=JPG}}</ref> '''288''' ([[Ballybofey]]/Derry),<ref name="Stranorlar-to-Derry">{{Cite web |title=426-288-Stranorlar-to-Derry-2.jpg |url=https://locallinkdsl.ie/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/426-288-Stranorlar-to-Derry-2.jpg |access-date=24 August 2023 |work=Local Link Donegal-Sligo-Leitrim |format=JPG}}</ref> '''952''' <small>([[Carndonagh]]/Derry)</small>,<ref name="Carndonagh to Derry" /> '''957''' <small>([[Shrove, County Donegal|Shrove]]/Derry, via Moville)</small>,<ref>{{Cite web |title=125909 SITT TT 957 Shrove to Moville 4pg DL |url=https://locallinkdsl.ie/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/957-Shrove-to-Moville-4pg-DL.pdf |access-date=24 August 2023 |work=Local Link Donegal-Sligo-Leitrim}}</ref>'''1426''' <small>([[Stranorlar]]/Derry)</small><ref name="Stranorlar-to-Derry" /> all servicing the city.
