Infrastructure Minister unveils £220,000 resurfacing scheme for Seymour Gardens in Derry
Road and lane closures will be necessary to facilitate a three hundred metre resurfacing project near Sperrin Park
Infrastructure Minister Liz Kimmins has announced that a £220,000 resurfacing scheme on Seymour Gardens, Derry, will commence on Monday, May 11 2026.
The resurfacing scheme will involve the asphalt resurfacing of 320 metres of Seymour Gardens from its junction with Sperrin Park extending towards its junction with Kinsale Park.
Minister Kimmins said: “This is a substantial investment for the City of Derry which will deliver significant benefits for residents and road users. The investment demonstrates my commitment to improving our road network. This work will greatly improve the strength and surface quality of this section of the road network to the benefit of local residents.”
To facilitate the safe delivery of the scheme it will be necessary to implement road and lane closures during these works. In order to help ensure the safety of road users and road workers the public is asked to comply with all temporary traffic restrictions and to drive with extra care when travelling in the vicinity of the works.
The Department has programmed the work operations and traffic management arrangements to minimise inconvenience however, while steps have been taken to accommodate local access road users should expect some delays and are advised to allow additional time when travelling in the vicinity of the works and are asked to comply with all temporary traffic restrictions.
Subject to favourable weather conditions, the works will be substantially complete by the 19 June 2026, however the Department will keep the public informed of any change.
