“I am continuing to press road service for a long term solution. I would like to see this section of the road resurfaced in the near future. However, I hope the immediate action taken by TransportNI will resolve the immediate danger to road users.”

He added: “TransportNI are dealing with a major funding crisis which is causing unprecedented issues with road maintenance. This is a very obvious example of why we need a functioning Assembly and Executive that will get to grips with these issues.

“I would like to thank TransportNI for their help and assistance to date.”
