Traffic Weight Restriction Introduced In Clady Street

A traffic weight restriction is set to come into place on the narrow, main street through Clady village in Co Tyrone.

Coming into operation on 29 November 2021, the new Statutory Rule will significantly reduce the number of HGVs using the street.

Infrastructure Minister Nichola Mallon introduced the restriction, which will prohibit vehicles exceeding 7.5 tonnes maximum gross weight from using the B85 Urney Road, Clady from its junction with the B165 Bellspark Road to its junction with the U0204 Urney Road. Vehicles are excepted from the restriction in certain circumstances such as HGVs making local deliveries or travelling to and from local businesses.


While the Statutory Rule comes into effect on the 29 November enforcement will not begin until signage has been placed on all approach roads.

However the Department for Infrastructure urges drivers of HGVs to refrain from using the route through the village from 29 November 2021.
