Underpass set to ease Belfast congestion

The multimillion-pound upgrade of the Westlink in Belfast took a major step forward when the Broadway Underpass opened today 13 months ahead of schedule.

A big easing of congestion for thousands of commuters is expected, as well as a cut in the time it takes to make the link between the M1 motorway and the M2 and M3 on the other side of the city.
