"This will come as welcome news to our struggling construction industry as this project is expected to create up to 800 jobs in this sector.
"I would like to pay tribute to the Roads Service design team who have ensured that all statutory requirements have been met to make this plan a reality and credit must also go to the Roads Minister Danny Kennedy for remaining calm and steadfast in his commitment to this road upgrade."
