Galway City Council will be carrying out major upgrade works on a city centre thoroughfare in the New Year, with traffic disruption expected.
Street rehabilitation and drainage upgrade works are to be carried out on Quay Street and High Street in the city centre in January and February.
In order to facilitate this work, the council has ordered Quay Street closed from the junction of Cross Street to the intersection with the exit from Leonardo Hotel.
High Street between its junction with Shop Street and Cross Street is also to be closed to HGV traffic.
The closure will be in place 24/7 from Wednesday January 10, 2024 to Thursday, February 29, 2024.
A temporary diversion route will be in place via Mainguard Street, Cross Street, Flood Street, turning left onto the R336 New Dock Street to Merchants Road Lower and further right on the R336 continuing along the Spanish Parade.
Localised access will be maintained as permitted within the limitations of those within the existing pedestrianised zone.
