To ask the Minister for Infrastructure whether she has given any consideration to creating an online portal for the reporting of damaged cycling infrastructure.

Currently the existing NI Direct public portal system caters for defects within the road and footpath network. Rather than creating a new online public portal solely dedicated to cycle ways and or greenways, it may be beneficial to install a damaged cycle way category option and/or drop-down bar within the existing NI Direct public portal system to report such a defect.

I have asked my officials to consider the introduction of such a category.
