He said: "This is another critical step in the journey for Lisburn City. The enriched environmental improvements that this Development Scheme will bring will encourage much needed investment in the area, which in turn will bring increased social and economic prosperity. This is a fantastic opportunity for the new Council."

The Department for Social Development is providing approximately £33,000 towards the project.
