Due to the nature of the work it will be necessary to implement a series of road, lane and hard shoulder closures which have been scheduled in two phases.

The second phase will be from 18 May 2025 until 23 June 2025 on the east-bound carriageway and will be completed under the following traffic management arrangements:

• From Monday 18 May until Friday 20 June 2025 lane 1 of the east-bound carriageway of the M1 will be closed in the vicinity of the works each night during the hours of 9pm and 6am (Monday to Friday only) to allow the old parapet to be removed and a new parapet to be installed safely.

• A full overnight closure will be required on the east-bound carriageway of the M1 from 11pm on Sunday 22 June 2025 until 6am on Monday 23 June 2025 to allow the temporary barrier to be removed. 

During all the bridge works the hard shoulder on either the east-bound or west-bound carriageways will be closed in the vicinity of the works, a temporary 50mph speed limit will be in operation and a recovery vehicle will be available on the M1.

The Department has carefully planned these road works to take place overnight and associated traffic management arrangements to minimise the inconvenience to the public. During periods of closure please follow the alternative route which will be clearly signed on the approaches to each full closure.
