UPDATE: OVERNIGHT RESURFACING WORKS AT BERRIEDALE, A9

May 17, 2023

A9 at Berriedale
  • Roadworks due to finish at Berriedale on 17 May extended by one night.
  • Additional full road closure between 8pm and 6am on 18 May.
  • Amnesties will be in place.

 

BEAR Scotland, Transport Scotland’s operating company, would like to inform those using the A9 at Berriedale that road surface improvements which were due to finish on the night of Wednesday 17 May are being extended by one night.

There will be an additional full road closure on Thursday 18 May between 8pm and 6am.

Vehicles will be held at either side of the work site until they can be escorted through the area safely during amnesty periods (when work is suspended) at 9pm, 10pm, 11pm, 12pm, 2am and 4am. An alternative route is available via Lairg, for those who do not want to wait for an amnesty.

The A9 will be open outwith working hours to keep disruption to a minimum, with a speed restriction of 30mph in place as traffic will be running over a temporary surface.

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