LOUTH COUNTY COUNCIL

TEMPORARY CLOSING OF ROADS

SECTION 75 ROADS ACT, 1993

Louth County Council hereby gives notice of its intention to close the M1 Mainline from Junction 18 to J16 on the M1 at night-time over a three night period to facilitate Celtic Roads Group (CRG) to carry out works on the overhead variable message gantry southbound between J17 and J16.

The Closures & Diversion route will be as follows: 

1. Southbound Mainline section of the M1 Junction 18 to J16 – for 3 nights within the period 4^th January 2023 – 20^th January 2023. - Diversion using the following national roads; Junction 18 to Junction 16 via the N52 inner Relief Road.

Diversions will be in place, at night-time only, between the hours of 19.30-06.30. 

The total duration of the roadworks is expected to be three nights, during which time the Junction 17 interchange slip road southbound and side roads may be closed.  It is the intention of Celtic Roads Group (CRG)  to minimise the road closures within the above period. 

Contingency has been included in the period to allow for disruption to works due to weather conditions etc. and every effort will be made to complete works in less than the timescale mentioned. 

For up to date information, notifications will be published on AA Roadwatch and on LMFM Radio.
