Roads To Be Closed During Work On A6 Castledawson To Randalstown Dualling Scheme

A number of roads will be closed during construction work on the A6 Castledawson to Randalstown Dualling scheme in Northern Ireland.

The closures will start on 26 January and diversions will be put in place.

The works will involve excavation directly adjacent to and across the existing carriageway to facilitate the permanent widening of the road over a 200 metre stretch from Moyola Bridge to just past the Brough Road.


A road closure is necessary to help ensure the safety of road users and those carrying out the works. The closures will take place over weekends, from 10pm on Friday night to 6am on Monday morning.

Weekend closures are due to commence on the evening of Friday 26 January 2018 and, depending on the progress on site, are likely to be in place for seven or eight weekends, with works expected to be completed no later than Monday 09 April. No closures are planned for the Bank Holiday weekends of 16 - 19 March 2018 and 30 March - 2 April 2018.
