Progress of work on railway line reviewed
The line is used as a diversionary route during engineering works on the NI Railways network or in emergency situations.
Mr Kennedy said: “I am impressed with the progress of this very important work. It is being carried out to address defective areas that will ensure the on-going serviceability and safe operation of the line.”
