Sinn Féin’s Órfhlaith Begley has welcomed the announcement that Infrastructure Minister John O’Dowd will soon bring a proposal to the Executive to move forward with building the A5.
Órfhlaith Begley said:
“It’s fantastic news that the Infrastructure Minister John O’Dowd is set to bring a recommendation to the Executive to build the A5.
“Transforming the A5 will save lives, create jobs and significantly cut journey times between the north-west and Dublin.
“The current A5 road has been the scene of heartbreak for too many families and has been held up for too long by objectors. Now is the time to move forward.
“Sinn Féin are committed to the A5 and we will work together with others in the Executive to ensure this new road is delivered.”
