To ask the Minister for Infrastructure to detail (i) why there has been a further delay in the publishing of the feasibility study for the reopening of the Knockmore Line; and (ii) when she expects the results of the study to be published.

As I have previously said, the report examining the reopening of the Knockmore Railway Line, which would reconnect Antrim and Lisburn via Crumlin, Glenavy, and Ballinderry, and a link to Belfast International Airport, has recently been submitted to my department by Translink. Once I have had time to consider the report’s findings, I plan to publish its main outcomes in the coming months.
