Answer

I am pleased to advise that Translink submitted an Economic Appraisal to my Department in June 2022 for the installation of a number of new bus shelters and refurbishment of existing bus shelters across the North including 12 within the South Antrim area. This Economic Appraisal is being subjected to the necessary approvals process to ensure it represents value for money for the public purse.

If you would like to discuss this further, Translink's Project Manager, Jonathan Elliott, (Jonathan.elliott@translink.co.uk) can be contacted. He is also available to meet with you week commencing 8th August 2022 should this be useful.
