Шаблон:Use Hiberno-English Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:More citations needed The Dublin–Belfast corridor[1] (population 3.3 million) is a term used to loosely describe a geographical area that encompasses Ireland's capital city, Dublin and Northern Ireland's capital city, Belfast. It also includes the smaller cities of Lisburn and Newry; major towns such as Drogheda and Dundalk;[2] and the Dublin satellite suburb of Swords.[3] The term has been used in papers regarding planning strategies in the area, with the aim of capitalising on the expanding economies of both cities.[4] Since the implementation of Brexit, the corridor exists inside the European Union on its Irish side, and outside the European Union on its Northern Irish side, but there is no so-called "hard border" between the two states.

Economy

The main economic engines of the region are the Greater Dublin Area and the Belfast Metropolitan Area. Greater Dublin has a GDP of around €222 billion (2022) while Belfast Metropolitan Area has €43 bn (2022) giving a total regional GDP of €265 bn. Шаблон:Citation needed

Infrastructure

The main route linking the two cities is along the M1 and N1 in the Republic of Ireland and the A1 and M1 in Northern Ireland.

There is also the Enterprise train service connecting the two city regions.
