NI Chamber comments on £130 million York Street Interchange scheme
Commenting on the Minister’s decision to proceed with the £130 million York Street Interchange scheme, funds permitting, Christopher Morrow, Head of Policy at NI Chamber, said:
“A world-class economy needs world-class infrastructure to support economic growth, and businesses need certainty that crucial improvements will be delivered. Recent figures have revealed that Belfast is the third most congested city in the UK and it is imperative that action is taken to redress this. Businesses rely on having infrastructure and transport routes in place whereby goods and products can be moved efficiently and without extra costs from one location to another. NI Chamber is delighted that the Minister has given the go-ahead to the York Street Interchange scheme which will ease traffic congestion and, in the process, help businesses with their operational costs, supply chain efficiency and overall productivity.”
