Pipelaying works underway

We would like to advise the public that pipelaying works are scheduled to get underway on the Lurgan Road (between Aghalee & Aghagallon), commencing Monday 10th November 2014.

To ensure pipelaying is carried out in the safest possible manner, our contractor Lagan Construction will need to implement a road closure on Lurgan Road, between its junction with Goudy Bridge Road and its junction with Brankinstown Road for approximately 5 weeks.

A diversion route will be signposted and schools in the area as well as the education board and emergency 
services have been 
notified.

Pipelaying work is also scheduled to take place shortly along the Cornakinnegar Road. Once a date has been finalised, signage and traffic management will be in place and we will continue to liaise with Transport NI regarding this section of work.

Work on the Colane Road (off the Lurgan Road) will be completed by the end of this week (Fri 7th Nov).

Martin Gillen NI Water Project Manager said: “NI Water and our contractor Lagan Construction would like to thank the public for their patience and cooperation while we complete this essential improvement work which will safeguard the security of the water supply for our customers.

“Letter drops will also be completed in the local area and customers with any concerns are encouraged to contact the Waterline number. We will endeavour to complete the work as quickly as possible, with minimal disruption and will continue to work closely with the local community to address any concerns.”
