The Peace Bridge in Derry will be closed from Monday 3 February to Friday 7 February 2025 between the hours of 9.30am to 3.30pm daily.The closure is necessary to enable a detailed inspection of the bridge to be carried out.
All bridges on the public road network are routinely inspected every six years to ensure they are safe for the public to use.
The inspection will include the use of an abseiling team.
Alternative access will be available via the Foyle Expressway, Foyle Road, Craigavon Bridge, Duke Street, Waterside Link and vice versa.
The planned inspection is to minimise inconvenience to the public.
You are advised to use the alternative route.
As this is slightly longer, you may need to allow extra time for your journey.
Subject to favourable weather conditions, the works will be complete by Friday 7 February 2025, however the Department for Infrastructure will keep the public informed of any change to the arrangements.
