The inquest into the death of Noah Donohoe concluded with a jury finding that possible failings by the Department of Infrastructure may have contributed to his death, although they deemed it not probable. The jury identified a lack of hazard warnings at the tunnel site and noted significant shortcomings in the Police Service of Northern Ireland's investigation, though these were not linked to his death.

This inquest sheds light on systemic issues within public safety and investigative practices. The findings may prompt reviews of safety protocols in infrastructure management and police procedures, potentially influencing future policy changes to prevent similar tragedies.
