  • £255,000 Trunk Road improvement scheme at Ballygowan Road, Comber

    Date published: 17 February 2017

    A £255,000 improvement scheme at Ballygowan Road, Comber is scheduled to commence on Friday 3 March 2017.

    Traffic movement during resurfacing work

    The resurfacing scheme is expected to be substantially completed by the end of March. It will greatly improve the strength and surface quality of the carriageway on a 1,400 metre section of this important A Class Trunk Road between Comber and Ballygowan which carries approximately 12,000 vehicles per day.

    To help ensure the safety of road users and contractors it will be necessary to operate temporary traffic signals and a road closure during the course of the improvements.

    Local access will be maintained and all diversions and restrictions will be clearly signposted.

    The planned dates for the scheme are subject to favourable weather conditions and TransportNI will keep the public informed of any change.

    TransportNI has carefully programmed the works operations and traffic management arrangements in order to minimise any inconvenience to the public, however motorists should be aware that some delays may be expected and that additional time should be allowed when planning any journeys.
