Question:
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure, pursuant to AQW 9728/17-22, for an update on when work will commence at Patton’s Lane, Holywood.

Answer:

The Environmental Improvement scheme planned for Patton’s Lane in Holywood is being delivered in partnership with the Department for Communities. The scope of the works and the design principles were agreed at a meeting involving my officials and counterparts from the Department for Communities.

The proposed work at this location involves the provision of a new surface enhanced with natural stone and this will greatly improve the overall appearance of the area. More detailed investigation also identified the need for improvement of the existing drainage systems. My Department is now seeking to undertake the necessary design work with a view to having this scheme completed during the next financial year; however this will be subject to the availability of funding.
