The Department of Infrastructure said the work will include Fountain Street widening in Downpatrick, Collin's Corner junction in Downpatrick and the extension of the Park and Share car park in Clough.
Divisional Roads Manager, Simon Richardson, said: "We will also be completing a significant programme of resurfacing schemes across the district including schemes at Downshire Road Newry, Sturgan Brae Camlough, Cecil Street Newry, Edendarriff Road Ballynahinch and Ardglass Road Downpatrick.

"These projects will realise significant benefits for both the local community and commuters in Newry Mourne and Down.
"However, the indicative budget outlined by the Secretary of State in April does mean that there are likely to be knock on impacts for services including routine maintenance of the road network. In this area, the Department is likely to be reliant on additional resources becoming available. We understand the implications of the limited service and its long term impacts on the network and we are doing our best to deliver routine maintenance within the allocated budget."
