Busy Offaly road closed for two days for resurfacing works

A busy Offaly road is closed for two days for resurfacing works. 

Work began on the R421 at Killurin today and will continue until Thursday. 

The works are taking place on a stretch of road between Tullamore and Killurin. 

A diversion is in place that will see traffic coming from Tullamore take the N52 as far as the Blue Ball before turning left and heading back to Killurin. 

Offaly County Council says it regrets any inconvenience to road users while the works are taking place.
