Resurfacing Programme Frequently Asked Questions

I have seen work taking place on my road already, but it hasn't been resurfaced yet, why not?

Before resurfacing works take place there is often the need for some 'pre works patching'. This is to fill in the worst of the pot holes and irregularities before the new surface is laid. There may be a delay of several weeks between the 'patching' works and the final surface.

Will I know before resurfacing works commence?
Will my road be closed?
A section of my road has been resurfaced, will the remaining section be done?
If my road will be closed, how do I get in and out of my property?
How do I know where to go if the road is closed?
I have seen work taking place on my road already, but it hasn’t been resurfaced yet, why not?
