The £27 million scheme, which saw Waterside Train Station restored and repurposed for use as a 21st Century transport facility, has been nominated for the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) People's Choice Award. This prestigious award recognises the top civil engineering project of the year, as voted for by the public, and aims to reflect what the people who benefit from civil engineering in their everyday lives really think.

Mayor of Derry City and Strabane District Council, Alderman Graham Warke praised Translink for its success on the project and called on the public to take part in the online poll.
"The North West Transport Hub has been a significant addition to city life since it opened last year, taking a key piece of the North West's architectural heritage and restoring it to a modern transport facility and an appropriate gateway to the North West region," said Mayor Warke.
"Their nomination for this prestigious title is just reward for the delivery of this project and the positive impact it has had on local people's lives.
"I would encourage everyone in the North West to get behind their bid to win the overall award by taking 30 seconds out of their day to logon and vote for the hub to win the overall prize."
Voting is available here.
