Woodstock Road Belfast closures for £350,000 road improvement scheme

A busy Belfast road is set to be subject to closures to accommodate a £350,000 road improvement scheme.

Work on the Woodstock Road will start on Monday, September 16, to improve the surface quality of the carriageway.

The resurfacing work will stretch from Halcombe Street to Tildarg Street.

Due to the nature of the work it will be necessary to operate overnight road closures, Monday to Friday, between 8pm and 6am.

A Department for Infrastructure spokesperson said: "To help ensure the safety of the public and road workers, road users are asked to follow signed diversionary routes, comply with all temporary traffic restrictions and to exercise care when travelling through, or in the vicinity of, the works.

"The Department has carefully programmed the work to ensure it is completed as efficiently and safely as possible, however, some disruption is expected and we would like to thank the public in advance for their patience.

"The entire scheme is expected to be completed by 4 October 2019, however, this is dependent on favourable weather conditions and the Department will keep the public informed of any change."
