New drop kerbs that have been installed in the Belmont Road area of East Belfast have been praised for helping to improve access for young families, the elderly and disabled.
East Belfast Alliance representatives have welcomed the new installations after calling on the Department for Infrastructure to improve accessibility in the area following concerns from local residents.
There were issues in the area for families with young children, disabilities and the elderly due to uneven paving and kerbs which resulted in people falling or coming into difficulty.
