A Lisburn councillor has raised concerns over two decades of "patchwork quilt" repairs which could leave a residential road on the verge of "complete breakdown".
The DUP rep has claimed the Derriaghy Road has been left in a bad state of repair for almost 20 years since a new housing development road was built nearby as the main access for motorists.
However, the Department for Infrastructure (DfI) alluded to budget restraints allowing for "only the highest priority defects" to be repaired in Northern Ireland.
