Date published:
Infrastructure Minister Liz Kimmins has announced that a £235,000 carriageway resurfacing scheme on the A34 Moorlough Road, Lisnaskea, between Castlebalfour Road and Crom Road, will commence on Monday 2 March 2026.
The proposed scheme will include full width resurfacing of the carriageway plus additional substructure patching to strengthen the carriageway at various locations.
Minister Kimmins said:
"This substantial investment of £235,000 on the A34 Moorlough Road, Lisnaskea will deliver significant benefits for road users and demonstrates my commitment to improving our road network, which is vital for connecting our businesses and communities. I would like to thank residents, local businesses and commuters for their patience while this essential infrastructure work is carried out."
To facilitate the safe delivery of the scheme, it will be necessary to implement a road closure on A34 Moorlough Road from Castlebalfour Road to Crom Road, between 9.30 am and 4.30 pm daily, for a two-week period commencing on Monday 2 March 2026.
During this time traffic will be diverted from Lisnaskea via A34 Main Street, B127 New Bridge Road, A509 Belturbet Road, N3 to Butlers Bridge, Co. Cavan to N54 through Cloverhill, Co. Cavan to A3 Cavan Road to B533 Wattlebridge Road and vice versa.
The Department has programmed the work operations and traffic management arrangements to minimise inconvenience. However, while steps have been taken to accommodate local access throughout the scheme, 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, the works will be substantially complete by Friday 13 March 2026, however the Department will keep the public informed of any change.
