Answer
My Department remains committed to taking forward the replacement of Moylinn East Footbridge. I can confirm that the contract tender process has now concluded, and it is expected that a full contract award, subject to any legal challenges, will be made by the end of January 2025.
At this time my Department does not have a scheme commencement date, although my officials will continue to liaise directly with the appointed contractor in order to find a suitable window for the commencement of works onsite.
