A £200,000 major resurfacing scheme will commence on the U1226 Meenadoo Road, Gortin on 15 January.
Bitmac resurfacing work on several stretches of the Meenadoo Road, totalling 3.5 kilometres, will improve the structural condition of this stretch of carriageway, enhance the running surface and reduce maintenance costs. The scheme is expected to be completed by the 26 January 2018.
To facilitate the work, a closure of the Meenadoo Road will operate daily between 8.00 am and 5.00 pm. Diversions will be signposted as work progresses and local access will be maintained.
Motorists using Meenadoo Road should be aware that diversions are in place and additional time should be allowed when planning any journeys.
As with all improvement works the planned dates are subject to favourable weather conditions and the Department will keep the public informed of any changes.
