BEAR Scotland, on behalf of Transport Scotland, is set to carry out essential landscape works to remove storm damaged trees on the A835 between Maryburgh and Contin, starting on Monday 8 December.
Works will take place under a single lane closure with temporary traffic lights in place for the duration of the works. All traffic management will be removed by the morning of Friday 19 December 2025.
Due to the nature of the works, there will be occasional full closures where traffic will be held for no more than 15 minutes to allow for the safe felling of taller trees.
Access for emergency services and scheduled bus services will be maintained for the full duration of the works.
Euan Scott, BEAR Scotland’s North West Representative said: “These tree felling works on the A835 between Maryburgh and Contin will ensure the safety of all road users in the future.
“Our teams will conduct these works quickly, with safety as our top priority. We thank the local community and road users for their patience while we carry out these works.”
