£150,000k resurfacing scheme underway in Kilkeel

A £150,000 major carriageway resurfacing scheme on a road in the Northern Irish town of Kilkeel has commenced.

The resurfacing work on Mill Road extends a distance of approximately 1km from its junction with Newcastle Street Kilkeel to its junction with Mountain Road Kilkeel.

The work is expected to be substantially completed by 31 March 2017.

TransportNI says it has carefully programmed the works operations and traffic management arrangements in order to minimise any inconvenience to the public, however motorists should be aware that some delays may be expected and that additional time should be allowed when planning any journeys.
