Motorists in Armagh have been urged to avoid the Killuney Road roundabout on the Portadown Road after a serious collision led to the junction being closed.
The closure remained in place at the latest update on Sunday, 23 August, while the response continued. Local diversions were operating around the area, but no confirmed time had been given for the roundabout to reopen.
What drivers should do
Drivers approaching the junction have been told not to attempt to pass through the roundabout. Instead, motorists should use an alternative route and follow official diversion signs in and around the affected area.
The precise roads included in the diversion had not been specified in the available update. Anyone planning a journey towards the Killuney Road roundabout or along nearby sections of the Portadown Road should check official traffic and travel information before setting out.
Conditions and local arrangements may change as the response develops. Drivers should remain alert for signs, traffic-management measures and any instructions issued at the scene, while allowing extra time for possible disruption.
Information about the collision
The incident has been described as serious, but further details about how the collision happened have not been released. It has also not been confirmed whether anyone was injured.
There was no expected duration for the closure at the latest update. That means motorists should continue to avoid the roundabout rather than relying on an estimated reopening time.
The advice remains to choose an alternative route, particularly for people who would normally use the Portadown Road or approach the nearby junctions. Official updates should be checked before travel and followed throughout the closure.
Further information is expected as the response continues. Until the junction reopens, local drivers and anyone travelling into Armagh are advised to plan ahead and avoid attempting to pass through the closed roundabout.
