'I do believe the road is dangerous and the amount of accidents that occur on it reflect that.'
Fresh concerns have been raised about the safety of a notoriously dangerous stretch of road in Co Down after multiple accidents in recent years.
Separately, a man in his 60s was taken to hospital for treatment to serious injuries following a collision on the same road earlier this month. Michael told Belfast Live : "I live within walking distance of the flood gates near where many accidents happen on the road and throughout the years, I have seen these accidents happen too many times. So much so, that I have throughout the years written to my MLAs about it and signed petitions appealing for the department to address the safety concerns of the road.
"Drivers' field of vision is also reduced due to the oncoming cars emerging onto a winding, bending road, where sometimes cars do not maintain strict lane discipline due to their speed and the bending of the road.
