The existing temporary road closure on the Waterford city road will remain in place

There will be no pedestrian access on a busy road in Waterford city over the next few days as roadworks continue.

A section of the Passage Road will be closed to pedestrians from Tuesday, August 2 to Friday, August 7.

The pedestrian closure will apply between the junction with St. Alphonsus Road and the junction with John's Hill to facilitate infrastructure works.

The existing temporary road closure on this section of Passage Road remains in place.

These works form part of the St. John of God National School, Passage Road, Safe Routes to School Scheme, and the installation of permanent infrastructure associated with the Newtown Area One-Way System (Phases 1 and 2).

In a statement, a spokesperson for Waterford City and County Council said that the council appreciates that these temporary restrictions may cause inconvenience.

They thanked the public for its patience, understanding and cooperation while the improvement works are carried out.
