Between Glenarm and Carnlough: A2 Coast Road CLOSED
Location Straidkilly Road - CarnloughDescriptionBetween Glenarm and Carnlough: As a result of heavy rain and snow fall onto already saturated ground, a small isolated section of the A2 Coast Road (The Cloney) approximately 1 mile North of Glenarm has become unstable. This has resulted in some material slipping onto the roadway. A full road closure has been put in place as DFI Roads Engineers carry out a full investigation and remove the material from the road.

There is a small diversion an I only hope they are not sending lorries and coaches over it!!!
 
That stretch of the Coast Road above Glenarm had a lot of reinforced banking completed a few years ago.
