Further Resurfacing Works Announced For Belfast
Motorists are being advised to pay attention to new road management systems in Belfast, as the Department of Regional Development announces further resurfacing works for the west of the city centre.
A new bus lane will be in operation on College Avenue and College Square East between Millfield and Wellington Place from Friday 12 April. It will be approximately 200m in length and operate from 07:00 to 19:00, Mon to Sat. There will also be two general southbound traffic lanes.
Following the resurfacing of Grosvenor Road between Durham Street and Fisherwick Place, only one lane will be available for eastbound traffic turning left into Fisherwick Place.
Further bus lanes will be introduced in Great Victoria Street and Fisherwick Place as resurfacing works are completed during April.
In addition, the lane markings on Howard Street between Upper Queens Street and Fisherwick Place will be amended to improve the flow of traffic.
This is expected to be in operation from Monday 22 April.
Red surfacing will be added over the coming weeks to highlight the bus lanes in the city centre.
Regional Development Minister Danny Kennedy said: "As further resurfacing works are completed in the area, amended road markings will be laid. I would remind motorists to be aware of the new traffic management arrangements as they come into operation and to pay extra care and attention as they become used to them."
