Work on a £290,000 major resurfacing scheme on the A29 Drumcroon Road in Garvagh, Co Derry will begin at the end of the month, Transport Minister Danny Kennedy has announced.
The work is due to begin on 28 July from a point 200 metres north of the B66 Craigmore Road for a distance of 1.9 Kilometres towards Garvagh and will see the road closed for three days.
Traffic control will be in operation during the normal working day however a three day road closure will be necessary to replace a road culvert from Tuesday, 29 July to Thursday, 31 July.
During this period traffic will be diverted via B66 Craigmore Road and B70 Boleran Road.
Traffic control will be in operation from 1 August with a further road closure for 4 days in September to facilitate surfacing.
The scheme is expected to be completed by Friday 19 September.
Mr Kennedy said the works had been carefully programmed in order to minimise any inconvenience to the public, however he added motorists should be aware that some “minor delays” may be expected.
