The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, visited Wrightbus in Ballymena on Monday to see the production of previously ordered new electric double-decker buses.
While in Northern Ireland, Mr Khan urged the Government to provide longer-term capital funding to Transport for London (TfL) to ensure the continued success of the supply chain, which supports tens of thousands of jobs across the country.
The Mayor reiterated how thousands of jobs around the UK linked to major transport projects in London could be at risk if TfL does not get the longer-term funding it needs.
