The road closure, which commenced at 9.30am today (Wednesday, September 2), is operating from Braepark Road to Collin Road.

A Department for Infrastructure (DfI) spokesperson said: “The closure is required off-peak only to replace decayed BT poles.

“An alternative route is Braepark Road - Collin Road and vice versa.”

The work is being carried out by a BT contractor.

Road users are advised to expect an estimated delay of five-15 minutes.

The work is set to be completed by 4pm today.
