On the afternoon of Monday February 16th we received reports of a road embankment that had collapsed on Ballinascorney Road Lower between the two junctions of Ballymaice Lane as a result of the extensive rainfall that has occurred recently. The road was attended to by road maintenance crews who installed temporary traffic lights and reduced the road to a single lane as a safety measure. A more detailed examination was carried out on Tuesday February 17th which identified further subsidence during the 24 hour period. Planned emergency works are now scheduled for Friday 20th February to implement permanent repairs at this location. It is estimated that the works will take 6 weeks. To facilitate these essential works Ballianscorney Road will have to be closed from Ballymaice Lane to the Footie. Local access will be facilitated at all times but there will be no through traffic. SDCC would like to apologise for the inconvenience and thank all concerned for their patience and cooperation during this essential work.
