    Date published: 28 June 2023

    A carriageway resurfacing scheme on the Avenue Road, Lurgan will commence on Monday 3 July 2023.

    Traffic movement during resurfacing work

    The works, which extend for a distance of approximately 0.7 kilometres, will greatly improve the strength and surface quality of the road.

    To allow for the completion of drainage and kerb/footway repairs prior to resurfacing it will be necessary to close one lane of Avenue Road from Monday 3 July – Friday 7July and Monday 24 July – Friday 11 August 2023. A full road closure will be required to facilitate the final resurfacing, however, the Department will keep the public informed in advance of the closures and a diversionary routes will be clearly signed.

    The Department has carefully planned these road works and associated traffic management arrangements in order to minimise inconvenience to the public, however road users should allow additional time when planning their journeys.

    Completion of the work by Friday 25 August 2023 is subject to favourable weather conditions, however, the Department will keep the public informed of any change.
