A decision will be made today at the High Court on whether or not the A6 upgrade will go ahead.

The multi million pound project is the subject of a High Court challenge by environmentalist Chris Murphy.

He launched the judicial review - claiming that a section of the proposed route breached a directive on protected areas.

The A6 is set to dissect the landscape made famous by poet Seamus Heaney.
