The scheme which will include the provision of a new combined footway and cycle way, will begin on 6 March 2024.
On completion of the footway, cycle track and any drainage improvements, Foreglen Road will be closed to through traffic while the resurfacing works are taking place. Traffic will be diverted via B69 Baranailt Road, the new A6 dual carriageway, B74 Feeny Road, B192 Foreglen Road and vice versa.

"This is a substantial investment for the Claudy area which will deliver significant benefits for residents and road users . The investment demonstrates my commitment to improving our road network, which is vital for connecting our businesses and communities.
"Walking and cycling are good for our physical and mental health and for the environment and as Minister I am keen to increase opportunities for active travel. This investment in a new shared cycleway - footway will enhance provision for cyclists and pedestrians in the Claudy area.
