During these times, traffic management will be in place between 9.30am-4pm and 6pm-10pm from Monday to Friday.
The public is being urged to comply with all temporary traffic restrictions and to drive with extra care when travelling in the vicinity of the works.
Announcing the works, Infrastructure Minister Mallon said: "I have made clear my commitment to address the issues which matter most to the people of Northern Ireland. Street lighting services are crucial in ensuring those driving, cycling and walking can do so safely within their communities.
"This investment provides new LED technology along Castlewellan Main Street. It is important that adequate street lighting not only improves the quality of lighting but is more energy efficient given my commitment to climate action."
