£163,000 road improvement scheme on Vale Road, Ballynahinch.
A £163,000 carriageway resurfacing scheme on the B7 Vale Road, Ballynahinch, will commence on Monday 3 June 2019.
The resurfacing work will extend a distance of approximately one kilometre from the Vale Road/Ballynahinch Road junction to immediately beyond the Vale Road/Cahard Road junction.
The scheme will deliver significant improvements to both the structural integrity and surface of the road and improve road drainage.
Due to the nature of the scheme, it will be necessary to operate a daily weekday road closure (Mon – Fri) between the hours of 8.00am and 6.00pm from Monday 3 June 2019 to Friday 5 July 2019. During these times a diversion will be in place with traffic being via the Ballynahinch Road.
Diversionary routes will be clearly signed and local access for residents will be maintained at all times during the works.
The Department has carefully programmed the work and traffic management arrangements to minimise any inconvenience, however, drivers should expect some delays and are advised to leave additional time when planning any journeys.
Completion of the work by 5 July 2019 is dependent on favourable weather conditions, however, the Department will keep the public informed of any change.
