Two Dungannon councillors have hit out at roadwork schemes that have left the town at “gridlock” and given the impression that it is “closed”.
Speaking at the council’s monthly meeting in January, Cllr Cuthbertson said it was “absolutely ridiculous” it has taken three weeks to resurface a stretch of the A29 Cookstown Road and that recent closures on the Granville Road and the Moy Road had caused further traffic problems.
The £204,000 resurfacing work will see 700 metres of carriageway from the Coalpit Road to Derraghdoan Road. A full road closure has been in place for three works with two way diversions in place via Tullycullion Road, Mullaghmore Road, Quarry Lane.
