Answer

As part of the Outline Business Case for Belfast Rapid Transit Phase 2 an assessment of potential routes has covered a range of criteria including potential demand, attractions, trip generators, buildability, environmental impacts and road safety. Discussions have also been held with Lisburn and Castlereagh Council officials to consider future developments in the Carryduff area to inform this assessment.

This assessment will establish emerging route options for consultation.
