A £170,000 resurfacing scheme is now underway to improve the quality of the carriageway. The work is expected to take a month to complete with fair weather and a two-way traffic flow will be in place. The road will be closed on December 2-3 for final resurfacing. Local Assembly Member, Ian McCrea welcomed the work saying the Tobermore Road was an essential route. “Delays may be an issue and I would encourage motorists using this route to plan ahead to avoid disruption to journeys,” he added.
