A £130,000 programme of roadworks has been announced in Dungannon.

Work will begin on Monday 20 January and run until Sunday 16 February.

Announcing the scheme, Infrastructure Minister Nichola Mallon said: "I have made clear my intent to tackle the regional imbalance in infrastructure. I will want any investment in road maintenance to reflect the need across our entire network. I am pleased to announce this significant investment in the Dungannon area. The work will greatly improve the strength and surface quality of this section of the road network and will serve the local community and visitors to the area for many years to come."

During the majority of the works a one-way traffic system will be in operation between Windmill Hill Road and Railway Road. Town bound traffic will be diverted along Windmill Hill Road, Eglish Road, Granville Road, Ballygawley Road and Railway Road. Out of town bound traffic will still be able to use Beech Valley during these times however delays should be expected.
