Road improvement scheme for Ballymena Road in Ballymoney
The resurfacing work will extend for a distance of approximately 0.58 kilometres and will greatly improve the strength and surface quality of the road, says the Department for Infrastructure. To facilitate the works, it will be necessary to implement a road closure (overnight only), between the hours of 7pm, and 7am from Monday 2 October until Saturday 14 October.
During these times, signed diversionary routes will be in place. Local access for residents and emergency services will be maintained at all times. Work will be carried out in three phases, with closures and diversions in place for each. Only one phase will be completed at a time, and at least one roundabout will be open at all times.

The Department has carefully planned these road works and associated traffic management arrangements in order to minimise inconvenience to the public. Road users are advised to allow extra time for their journey and to follow the alternative routes which will be clearly signed on the approaches to the closure.
Completion of the work by 14 October is dependent on favourable weather conditions, however the Department will keep the public informed of any change.
