Text

I thank the Minister for her fulsome answer. Unfortunately, some of the residents feel let down because they have seen numerous false dawns. The Minister will be aware of the increasing volume of HGV traffic in Hillsborough, which has been an ongoing challenge. It would seem a shame to miss the opportunity to address that next year. Will part of the discussions with Lisburn and Castlereagh City Council be about addressing, once and for all, traffic congestion in Hillsborough.
