The Garvagh man recently wrote to the minister about the issue.
In response, Mr Kennedy said that the road, classified as a ‘trunk road’ underwent ‘routine testing’.

Mr Kennedy concluded that the busy stretch of road would ‘continue to be inspected’.
McQuillan says he has been contacted by a number of commuters about the state of the road.
“Despite receiving a negative response from the Minister I will continue to raise this issue at every viable opportunity.
“It is vital that this road is checked regularly.”
