Councillor McLean said the road surface has been in a poor condition for many years and the work was badly needed.

The scheme, which extends a distance of 420 metres, will start from house No 42 to Thornhill Avenue and is scheduled to last for approximately four weeks.

To help minimise any inconvenience to the travelling public, a two-way traffic flow will be maintained on Coolshinney Road with lane closures under traffic signal control.

The Department has programmed the work operations and traffic management arrangements to minimise inconvenience, however, drivers should expect some delays and are advised to allow additional time when travelling in the area.
