A £240,000 resurfacing and reconstruction scheme on the Strand Road in Derry, between the Pennyburn Roundabout and Meadowbank Avenue commenced today (Monday, April 30).
To facilitate the resurfacing it will be necessary to implement a full road closure from Sunday, May 27 to Friday, June 1 between 7pm and 7am.
A continuous closure will also be in operation from 7pm on Sunday, June 3 to 7am on Tuesday, June 5. Lane closures may be necessary at other times, however, access for local residents and businesses shall be accommodated.
During closure periods a diversion will be clearly signposted via the Rock Road, Northland Road, Springtown Road and Buncrana Road and vice versa.
Road users may experience some delays and additional time should be allowed when planning any journeys.
Subject to favourable weather conditions the work is expected to be completed by June 9, however, the Department will keep the public informed of any change.
