Glenarty Road works update

Bridge upgrade and road reconstruction works 

Bridge upgrade and road reconstruction works on Glenarty Road are continuing in February and March 2026. 

From the middle of next month, we will be restarting works to repair the bridge on Glenarty Road. The bridge was closed in 2025 for essential maintenance, but project progress has been impacted by delays in the supply of materials. 

This final stage of bridge works is expected to take around six weeks to complete. 

While the road closure is in place we will also be taking the opportunity to improve the road surface, with upgrade works starting in February. 

These will include the removal of organic material and reinstatement of table drains, culvert renewal, widening of the road formation, pavement renewal, and the application of a new widened seal. 

The road closure between the southern end of the Glenarty Road bridge and the Wilson Road intersection will remain in place while we finish these works, which should be before Easter. 
These works are being carried out in accordance with sections 3.50 and 3.50A of the Local Government Act 1995, Part 3.
