BEAR Scotland, on behalf of Transport Scotland, is set to carry out essential road improvements on the A9 in two locations. Works will take place North of Blair Atholl Junction and South of House of Bruar over two nights.

These works will cover 60 meters between the two schemes on the single carriageway of the A9 under temporary traffic lights with a convoy.

A9 North of Blair Atholl Junction: Works will take place here over the night of Wednesday 7 May between 7pm and 6am. Temporary traffic lights and a 10mph convoy will be in place.

A9 South of House of Bruar: Works will take place here over the night of Thursday 8 May between 7pm and 6am. Temporary traffic lights and a 10mph convoy will be in place.

During non-working hours, the temporary traffic management measures will be lifted.

Access through the works sites for emergency services will be maintained at all times.

Ian Stewart, BEAR Scotland’s North West Representative said: “These crucial surfacing projects along the A9 will fix existing defects and significantly enhance the driving experience for all motorists. Our teams are committed to executing these works quickly and with safety as our top priority. We extend our gratitude to the local community and road users for their patience while we complete the improvements.

“To minimise delays, we recommend that motorists plan their journeys in advance by consulting the Traffic Scotland website for real-time travel updates.”
