Roadworks in Mid Ulster Scheduled to Cause Traffic Delays

Scheduled roadworks in the Mid Ulster area over the coming week will result in significant traffic delays. The works will affect key roads, particularly in Dungannon, as construction and maintenance activities are set to take place.

Details of the Roadworks

The A0045 Loughview Road in Dungannon will experience a lane closure from Pine Bank Park to Ballynakilly Road. This closure, required to facilitate work by Charles Brand Ltd., will be in effect continuously until March 13, 2026. Traffic control measures will be in place, and motorists should anticipate delays.

In addition, the A45 Ballynakilly Road will see a road closure from Moor Road to Dungannon Road. This closure is necessary for the construction of the Creenagh Bridge Replacement and related carriageway works, scheduled to last until December 18, 2024. A diversion route will be established, with expected delays ranging from 15 to 30 minutes.

Another section of the A45 Ballynakilly Road will also be closed, specifically from Coalisland Road to Creenagh Bridge Road. This closure, which supports the ongoing bridge replacement and carriageway improvements, will remain in effect until December 19, 2024. Similar traffic control measures will be implemented, and delays of 15 to 30 minutes are anticipated.

Impact on Commuters

Commuters and local residents are advised to plan their journeys accordingly to avoid inconvenience. The roadworks are part of ongoing infrastructure improvements aimed at enhancing safety and accessibility in the region. Authorities recommend using alternative routes where possible to minimize delays.

As the work progresses, updates will be provided to keep the public informed about any changes or additional closures. Staying aware of these developments will help drivers navigate the affected areas more effectively.
