Lagan River is one of the seven district electoral areas (DEA) in Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon, Northern Ireland.[1] The district elects five members to Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council and contains the wards of Donaghcloney, Dromore, Gransha, Quilly and Waringstown.[2] Lagan River forms part of the Upper Bann constituencies for the Northern Ireland Assembly and UK Parliament and part of the Lagan Valley constituencies for the Northern Ireland Assembly and UK Parliament.
It was created for the 2014 local elections, largely replacing the Dromore DEA which had existed since 1985, and parts of the Lurgan DEA.
