Cappagh Road in Galway City will be closed for the next two weeks starting from today to allow for infrastructure works to take place.
The road will be closed to through traffic 24/7 outside the new development at Lenabower near the junction with the Western Distributor Road.
The road closure is expected to be in place from Monday, July 3 through to Friday, July 14.
Local access will be maintained at all times either side of the works area.
The road closure is needed to allow water, storm and sewer connections for the new housing development at Lenabower to be carried out safely.
As part of these works full width road excavations are required across both lanes of traffic, along with deep excavations of up to 3.6m required in rock with restrictions on hours while breaking in a residential area.
Other works being carried out will include the installation of two new manholes, and planting works.
