Glenavy Road, Lisburn will benefit from a £100,000 carriageway resurfacing scheme which is due to commence on Friday 6 March 2020.

The scheme extends from Magheramesk Lane in a southerly direction towards the railway bridge and should be fully completed within 10 days.

In addition a lane closure will operate on Monday 9 March and Tuesday 10 March between the hours of 9.30 am and 4.00 pm.

To help ensure the safety of road users and road workers the public is asked to comply with all temporary traffic restrictions and to exercise care when travelling through, or in the vicinity of, the works.
