Work on a carriageway resurfacing project is to commence on the Clare Road in Tandragee on Thursday, 15 April.

The £441,000 improvement work will extend approximately 3.2 kilometres from its junction with B114 Shanecracken Road to its junction with Mavemacullen Road.

Infrastructure Minister Nichola Mallon said: "This significant investment will greatly improve the strength and surface quality of this section of the road network to the benefit of all who use it. I would like to thank the travelling public and local residents in advance for their cooperation while these much needed works are completed."

To facilitate the works, it will be necessary to operate a daily weekday road closure (Monday to Friday) between the hours of 9.30am and 4.30pm from Thursday 15 April until Friday 21 May.

During these times a diversion will be in place via B114 Shanecracken Road, B114 Dunesmullan Road, B3 Tandragee Road, B3 Moyrourkan Road, B131 Cloghoge Road and B2 Clare Road. The road will be open to traffic during weekday evenings and all day Saturday and Sunday. Local access for residents and emergency services will be maintained at all times.
