Steve Taylor, BEAR Scotland’s North West Design Manager, said: “This resurfacing project will address defects at four locations to provide safer and smoother journeys for road users.

“Our teams will work overnight to complete these improvements as efficiently as possible while keeping disruption to a minimum. We thank the local community and road users for their patience while the works are carried out.

“We encourage road users to plan their journeys in advance and check Traffic Scotland for the latest travel information.”

All works are weather dependent and may be rescheduled if conditions are unsuitable.
