Narrow Water bridge is at the top of Newry business' agenda.

That's from Chamber of Commerce CEO Mary Meehan.
The cross-border road bridge will link counties Down and Louth.
Plans have been stalled after miscalculations of the cash needed.
But earlier this month Roads Minister Chris Hazzard's renewed his commitment to the project was cautiously welcomed.
Ms Meehan says the bridge will be an economic driver for the region:

"We see this as one of our key infrastructural priorities and again in the new Program for Government which is out for consultation, we will be ensuring that that is very much on the agenda."
