M2, Ballymena - the missing link
When the M2 Ballymena bypass opened in 1969 the intention was to connect it to the Belfast-Antrim section. In the event the plan was abandoned and a dual carriageway was (eventually) built instead over most of the route. This still left a gap at the southern end (seen here). The plan to make a direct connection to the Belfast road has been revived - see Image For comparison “then and now” see Image
