Uisce Éireann has advised motorists of a road closure in Portlaw starting on Monday 23rd September to facilitate a project to improve water quality and reduce leakage.
To facilitate these works, a section of Priest’s Lane (L-4034), from the junction with the R680 to the junction with Upper Brown Street/Carrick Road Lower will be closed for two weeks.
Works will be ongoing from 7am to 7pm from Monday 23rd September to Sunday 6th October inclusive.
The road will open each evening from 7pm to 7am and local and emergency services access will be maintained at all times.
Local diversions will be in place and traffic flows will be diverted via Carrick Road Lower, Carrick Road (L-4033) and the R680.
Uisce Éireann’s Leakage Reduction Programme Manager, Dave Murphy thanked the community for their patience and co-operation in advance of the works saying: “We acknowledge that traffic diversions and road closures can be inconvenient for the local community and our crews will make every effort to minimise disruption. This project is essential to ensure Portlaw’s security of supply now and into the future.”
