Motorist could receive a ticket if caught not following diversions, police warn

Police are advising motorists in Maghera to follow traffic diversions.

Motorist could receive a ticket if caught not following diversions, police have warned.

A PSNI spokesperson said: "Please be aware that with Maghera undergoing a fresh public realm scheme there are major works being carried out throughout the town.

"Of particular concern to police are some motorists who are choosing to ignore traffic restrictions which have been put in place to divert vehicles away from construction workers on the Coleraine Road and keep them safe.

"No traffic when the road works are underway is permitted to enter Maghera unless it follows diverisons when traveling from Swatragh on the Coleraine Road to Crewe Road, Station Road and Fairhill/Glen Road to Upper Main Street.

"Any driver stopped by police during the times of these public works could possibly receive a ticket if they ignore the no entry signs on the road.

"Please do not breach the signs and do not endanger anyone working."
