The scheme will install a total of 90 new street lighting columns and replacement underground cables with new LED lights on both the Lurgan bound and Portadown bound carriageways between Roundabout 5 Mandeville Road up to and including Roundabout 7.
Infrastructure Minister Nichola Mallon said: "This significant investment will benefit everyone who travels and works in the area. I am committed to addressing the issues which matter most to people and street lighting services are crucial in ensuring those driving, cycling, wheeling and walking can do so safely within their communities.

"This investment provides new LED technology along the Mandeville Road. 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.
"I would like to thank the public and local residents in advance for their cooperation and ask that they comply with all temporary traffic restrictions while these much needed works are completed."
The scheme is expected to be completed by the mid September.
