Serpentine Road Belfast closure for £100,000 road works

The Serpentine Road in North Belfast is set to close for £100,000 resurfacing works.

The work is due to start on Monday, July 22, and will extend from the Whitewell Road to its junction with Merston Gardens.

To help ensure the safety of road users and contractors the improvements will be carried out under the following road closures:

  • Monday July 22 to Wednesday July 24 from 9.30am to 4.30pm
  • Monday July 29 to Friday August 2 from 9.30am to 4.30pm

Diversions will be put in place and parking will not be permitted on this stretch of the Serpentine Road. Residents are requested to park outside of the works area during construction.

The scheme is expected to be complete by Friday August 2.

A spokesperson for the Department for Infrastructure said: "Diversionary routes will be clearly signed and access for residents will be maintained in the area for the duration of the works. During the work parking will not be permitted on this section of Serpentine Road and residents are requested to park outside the works area during this time.

"Completion of the scheme by Friday 2 August will be dependent on the progress of the scheme and on favourable weather conditions, however, the Department will keep the public informed of any change.

"Whilst the Department has carefully planned these road works and associated traffic management arrangements in order to minimise any inconvenience to the public, road users should expect some delays and allow additional time when planning any journey."
