Road users will benefit from an improved road surface at Latheron on the A9 as BEAR Scotland get set to carry out surfacing works on behalf of Transport Scotland.
The surfacing improvements will involve resurfacing the road to make it more durable and resilient against inclement weather, as well as providing a safer road for road users.
The works will be carried out between 7pm and 6am over four nights, starting from Monday 19 May until 6am on Friday 23 May.
To ensure the safety of the workforce and members of the public, the short section of carriageway where the A9 joins the A99 will be closed during working hours, with amnesty periods at 8pm, 9pm, 10pm, 11pm, midnight, 2am and 4am.
Consultation has taken place with all relevant stakeholders in advance of the surfacing improvements to make them aware of the traffic management arrangements.
Ian Stewart, BEAR Scotland’s North West Representative, said: “These maintenance works on the A9 at Latheron will fix existing defects and greatly improve the surface for road users.
“We thank the local community and road users for their patience in advance while we complete this project. We encourage motorists to plan ahead before setting out by checking the Traffic Scotland website for up-to-date travel information.”
Real time journey information is available from Traffic Scotland on www.traffic.gov.scot, X at @trafficscotland or the new mobile site my.trafficscotland.org.
Materials removed from the existing carriageway will be recycled using SEPA approved methods.
