Ulster Unionist Transport Minister Danny Kennedy MLA has visited the A8 for a site inspection. On the visit the Minister was accompanied by East Antrim MLA Roy Beggs and South Antrim MLA Danny Kinahan.
Roy Beggs said “I welcome the opening of the Ballynure bypass which will remove delays at the busy roundabout and the risk of accidents.”
“The A8 is on schedule for completion this year and will improve the local transport links and so improve the opportunities of investment in Larne and increase the attractiveness of the Larne/ Cairnryan ferry route.”
