Delays are likely and the travelling public is advised to use an alternative route or allow extra time for their journey. Bus services will be affected by the closure, but a shuttle bus will be running to ferry passengers between the affected stops.

The work will be carried out in five phases, and began with the partial closure of Cove Road between Charleston Road and Cairnbeg Road. This section will remain closed for up to five weeks while the foul water pumping main is inserted along the centre of the carriageway.
The second stage of the five-phase project will see the north side of the carriageway reopened, while work continues on the south side carriageway. Temporary traffic lights will be in operation during this part of the project and will control the flow of traffic in both directions. It is anticipated that phase two will take approximately two weeks to complete.
Details about phases three, four and five, which will be carried out following completion of phase two, will be made available in due course.
