Essential resurfacing works on the A2 Sydenham Bypass will resume from Monday 6 January 2025.
To minimise disruption, works will continue during weeknights and weekends. The Belfast-bound carriageway will be closed between Tillysburn and the M3 as follows:
- Weeknights: 10:00pm to 6:00am, Monday to Thursday
- Four additional weekends: 10:00pm Friday to 6:00am Monday (with the first weekend closure scheduled from Friday 10 January to Monday 13 January 2025). All weekend closures dates will be weather dependent and the Department will keep the public informed once dates are confirmed.
Some weekend and overnight lane closures will also be required on the countrybound lanes to ensure the safety of road workers and the travelling public while work is undertaken.
During periods of closure, a diversionary route will be clearly signposted.
Those travelling to and from Belfast City Airport during the road closures are advised to leave additional time for their journey. Please note that the citybound underpass exit will not be open during this time, and as such, all users will be required to take the countrybound exit towards Bangor.
