Galway Daily news Archaeological delays extend Galway City Centre road closure

The ongoing closure of a street in Galway City Centre has been extended for a week due to unforeseen archaeological delays.

Bowling Green has been closed since the end of October while upgrade works are taking place on local water infrastructure.

The road has been completely shut to traffic between its junctions with Market Street and Abbeygate Street Upper.

The works were meant to be completed by this Friday, but Galway City Council has now extended the road closure to 6pm on Friday, December 15.

This has been due to “unforeseen archaeological delays” encountered during the infrastructure upgrade works.

The diversion route will remain in place for this period per the map above.
