"I would ask the public for their patience during these works as delays can be expected and should be planned for."

Work will start on the Keady Road Newtownhamilton near Carrickatuke on 23 September and is expected to be completed on 6 October. On the Summerisland and Ardress roads, work is planned to start on 7 October and be completed by 10 November.
