Question:
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure to detail planned (i) structural maintenance works; and (ii) strategic road improvement schemes in the North Down constituency during 2020/21.

Answer:

Unfortunately my Department has been forced to revise its original programme of structural maintenance works in North Down as a result of the impact of Covid-19. I understand officials from the local Section Office have made the Member aware of this recently and confirmed that two schemes, one in Holywood and one in Bangor, have been deferred until next Spring. I can confirm that the following resurfacing schemes are planned for the current year and additional schemes may be added as finance permits:

Church Drive, Bangor;

Manse Road, Bangor; and

Cultra Avenue, Holywood.

In relation to strategic road improvement (SRI) schemes, I can confirm that there are currently no SRI schemes planned for in the North Down constituency in 2020/21.
