Ardglass Roadworks To Begin On 05 June
The Department for Infrastructure has announced a programme of roadworks in Ardglass, that will get underway on Monday 05 June.
The resurfacing scheme will involve the asphalt resurfacing of a 0.5 kilometre stretch of Quay Street, from Bath Lane to Kildare Street.
This work will greatly improve the strength and surface quality of this section of the road network to the benefit of local residents, businesses and tourists and is expected to be completed by Friday 23 June 2023.
To facilitate the safe delivery of the scheme it will be necessary to implement a road closure from 9.00 am to 5.00 pm Monday to Friday, from Monday 5 June 2023 through to Friday 23 June 2023. The road will be open to traffic overnight and at the weekends.
During these times, a signed diversionary route will operate via A2 Kildare Street, U22 Hill Street and A2 Bath Street.
Local access for residents and emergency services will be maintained at all times, however some minor delays may be experienced.
The Department has programmed the work operations and traffic management arrangements to minimise inconvenience, however, road users should expect some delays and are advised to allow additional time when travelling in the vicinity of the works and are asked to comply with all temporary traffic restrictions.
Subject to favourable weather conditions all work will be completed by Friday 23 June 2023, however, the Department will keep the public informed of any change.
All work will be carried out in line with current public health and health and safety advice, with safe systems of working in place for staff and contractors.
