Question:
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure for an update on the development of the Regional Strategic Transport Network Transport Plan.

Answer:

The Regional Strategic Transport Network Transport Plan (RSTNTP) will set out future investment and improvement for our strategic transport networks, by road, rail and bus, and reflect my commitment to improving connectivity for the benefit of our economy and communities across Northern Ireland.

My Department is currently progressing the RSTNTP to draft report stage in order to allow it to be presented for public consultation.

I am working closely with officials to monitor progress and intend to publish the draft RSTNTP for public consultation in late 2021, with a view to issuing the finalised Plan in spring 2022.
