Transport Minister Danny Kennedy said Belfast and Craigavon would also benefit.
Mr Kennedy stated: “Earlier this year, I announced funding totalling £4.3m over 3 years for four council led projects which aim to demonstrate how active travel can benefit both individuals and their communities.

He said his officials are working closely with the successful Councils and the results will be used to inform any decisions on the potential roll out of demonstration projects in the future.
“I can however confirm that no provision has been made in the current spending round for a further extension of the demonstration projects across other council areas,” he said.
