Absolutely. I know how important it is to the people in Hannahstown whom you represent. I assure you that improving those facilities is a key priority for me and my Department. I also appreciate residents' frustration that the footway has not yet been constructed. We are 100% committed to progressing the design of the 550 metre-long footway as soon as we can. I am happy to continue liaising with the Member on that, and we will be out on site. We will continue to move the scheme as quickly as possible.
