CARRIAGEWAY REPAIRS AT M9 JUNCTION 8

November 10, 2026

  • Overnight carriageway closure Wednesday 11 November 2026

The southbound carriageway of the M9 between Junctions 9 and 8 will be closed for carriageway repairs between 19:30 and 06:00 on the night of Wednesday 11 November.

A diversion route will be signposted from M9 Junction 9 (Bannockburn) via the M80 southbound to Junction 7 (Haggs), where traffic can turn and join the M80 northbound and then the M876 eastbound to re-join the M9 at Junction 8. This will add approximately 9 minutes and 8.3 miles to affected journeys.

Access for emergency vehicles will be maintained at all times.

Relevant stakeholders have been consulted in advance to make them aware of the plans.

Tommy Deans, BEAR Scotland’s South East Network Manager, said: “It’s necessary to close the M9 southbound between Junctions 9 and 8 to allow us to carry out repairs to the carriageway.

“We’ll do this at night to minimise disruption, however if you need to use this route on the night of Wednesday 11 November, please allow extra time for the diversion.”

All works are weather dependent and subject to postponement in the event of adverse conditions.
