£750,000 carriageway resurfacing on 1.3km stretch of Limavady road starts on Monday

The resurfacing scheme will extend for approximately 1.37km on the C570 Greystone Road from the Broad Road to Scroggy Road.

Infrastructure Minister Liz Kimmins said: “This is a substantial investment of £750,000 for the Limavady area which will deliver significant benefits for residents and road users. The investment demonstrates my commitment to improving our road network, which is vital for connecting our businesses and communities. I would like to thank residents, local businesses, and commuters for their patience while this essential infrastructure work is carried out.”

To facilitate safe delivery of the scheme, it will be necessary to implement temporary traffic management arrangements, from Monday, July 27, until Friday, August 28, 2026.

Lane closures will be in place from Monday, July 27 to Friday, July 31 and from Monday, August 17 to Friday, August 21.

Road closures will be operational from 7am to 5pm from Monday, August 3 to Friday, August 14 and from Monday, August 24 to Friday, August 28.

During the road closures, signed diversionary routes will be in place via:-

Diversion 1: A37 Broad Road – A371 Rathmore Road – C570 Scroggy Road and vice versa.

Diversion 2: U2270 Edenmore Road – U2271 Ballyavelin Road – B68 Ballyquin Road – C570 Scroggy Road and vice versa.

The Department has programmed the work and traffic management arrangements to minimise inconvenience, however, while measures have been taken to accommodate local access, road users should expect some delays and are advised to allow additional time when travelling.

Subject to favourable weather, the works will be substantially complete by Friday, August 28 2026.
