Ł150,000 ROAD IMPROVEMENT SCHEME FOR STRABANE

A Ł150,000 road scheme has commenced on the A5 Derry Road, Strabane, within the town limits. A section of the trunk road, 650 metres in length, between the northern end of the bypass at its junction with the B72 Derry Road and the Woodend Road will be resurfaced and part reconstructed. The condition of the carriageway has deteriorated significantly over recent months and resurfacing is required.

A right-turning lane will be provided to Glenside housing estate and the footways resurfaced. The opportunity will also be taken to upgrade the drainage system.

Every effort will be made to minimise traffic disruption, however traffic delays are anticipated and motorists are asked to approach these works with care and attention. The works will take eight weeks to complete and Roads Service ask the travelling public to observe the traffic control measures and for their patience during these necessary maintenance works.

Roads Service apologises for any delay and inconvenience that may be caused but are confident that motorists will understand the need for this necessary maintenance work.
