A resurfacing scheme is set to take place on the A21 Comber Road / South Street in Newtownards.
The scheme which will begin on Monday 22 July will involve the asphalt resurfacing of a 750 metre stretch of the A21 between the Comber Road Roundabout and Court Street junction.
This effort will significantly improve the durability and surface condition of this segment of the road network, benefiting residents, businesses and travellers passing through Newtownards.
To facilitate the safe delivery of phase one of the scheme it will be necessary to implement overnight road closures between A20 Comber Road Roundabout and U9020 Court Street from 7.00 pm to 6.00 am each night, from Monday 22 July to Wednesday 31 July 2024.
During these times there will be a signed diversionary route via Comber Road, Castlebawn Road, Portaferry Road, Court Square, Castle Street, Court Street, Old Cross Street and South Street.
To facilitate the safe delivery of phase two of the scheme it will be necessary to implement daily road closures between U9002 Circular Road and U9020 Court Street from 9.30 am to 4.30 pm Monday to Friday, commencing Monday 29 July to Friday 20 September 2024.
During these times there will be a signed diversionary route via Comber Road, Castlebawn Road, Portaferry Road, Court Square, Court Street, Old Cross Street and Castle Street.
The resurfacing scheme is expected to be completed by 20 September 2024, however, the Department for Infrastructure will keep the public informed of any change.
