Road works on Main Street, Naas for next 7 weeks

Kildare Co Council has announced that works on the Main Street of Naas are scheduled to begin today and are expected to continue for approximately seven weeks.

The works include new ducting to facilitate the undergrounding of ESB cables and the provision of new public lighting poles and other minor civil works.

The works extend from the Presbyterian Church to the former Superquinn entrance.

A Council spokesperson said: "The appointed contractors will be liaising directly with businesses on this section of the Main Street with regard to required power outages and maintaining pedestrian/customer access.

"The improvement works may cause some temporary inconvenience to businesses and members of the public, for which Kildare County Council apologies in advance.

"The new lighting and undergrounding of cables will result in a significant visual improvement to the streetscape along this section of roadway."
