A6 Londonderry-Dungiven road opens in time for Easter holidays

The new A6 between Londonderry and Dungiven has officially opened.

Cars, lorries and buses took to the 16-mile stretch of road shortly after 09:00 BST on Thursday.

Work began on the road back in 2018 and was due to be completed by last autumn, but has been plagued by delays.

It is hoped the new road will help cut travel time between Belfast and Derry.
