‘This is tragic news and my thoughts and prayers go out to the lady’s family at this terrible time. It is an awful tragedy that someone out for a walk on Saturday evening has lost their life in Bangor.

Local people within this residential area of Bangor are shocked at this terrible news coming from the weekend. I would appeal to anyone with any information to contact the PSNI immediately.

This is a dangerous section of road and I will continue to lobby DfI Roads to ensure all efforts are made to improve road safety along this road.'
