A call has been made for improved cycling infrastructure on the Ravenhill Road to improve transport for the growing community in the area.
Green Party councillor Brian Smyth has written to the Infrastructure Minister asking for the South Belfast road to be included in the plans for the Belfast Cycle Network, believing that it could become a popular active travel corridor for that part of the city.
He says that currently the Ravenhill Road suffers from a lack of public transport, with there being no buses available on a Sunday, and it is regarded as the "poorer relation" of the nearby Ormeau Road and Cregagh Road.
