A legal challenge targets the A5 road upgrade in Northern Ireland, aiming to prevent the dual carriageway construction.

A new legal challenge has been submitted against the A5 road upgrade in Northern Ireland, approved in October, aiming to turn the Strabane to Ballygawley stretch into a dual carriageway. The project, first approved in 2007, has faced multiple legal challenges and funding issues. Since 2006, the A5 has seen 57 deaths. Infrastructure Minister John O'Dowd will robustly defend the case, noting delays could cost millions.
