The scheme, which will involve the resurfacing and reconstruction of 500m of the B530 Rossdowney Road is due for completion by 31 August 2017.

A diversion route via the C581 Woodburn Park and A6 Dungiven Road and vice versa will be available.

Whilst the Department has carefully planned these road works and associated traffic management arrangements in order to minimise any inconvenience to the public, motorists should expect delays and allow additional time when planning any journey.
