The southbound on-slip to the A9 from the A820 near Dunblane is set to benefit from carriageway resurfacing improvements with work set to get underway tomorrow night.
The £270,000 project will involve teams carrying out essential surfacing improvements and lining upgrades to the slip road, ensuring the integrity and safety of the trunk road network at this location.
The project is scheduled to get underway from 7.30pm on Friday 6 November and is planned to take place over three days using 24-hour working, with all improvements expected to be completed by 6.30am on Monday 9 November.
To ensure the safety of roadworkers and motorists, the slip road will be closed throughout the duration of the project. Road users wishing to use the slip road will be diverted onto the northbound A9 to the Queen Victoria Interchange and back onto the southbound A9.
Consultation has taken place with all relevant stakeholders in advance of the resurfacing project to make them aware of the traffic management arrangements and to minimise any inconvenience.
Ian Stewart, BEAR Scotland’s North East Representative, said: “This £270,000 investment from Transport Scotland will greatly improve and strengthen this section of the A9, as well as create a smoother and safer journey for motorists.
“The traffic management is essential to ensure the safety of roadworkers and motorists during this project. To help minimise delays as much as possible, we’ve planned the improvements to take place over one weekend using 24-hour working, and our teams will do all they can to complete the works as quickly and safely as possible.
“We thank motorists for their patience in advance while our teams carry out these essential improvements on the A9. We encourage road users to plan their journeys in advance by checking the Traffic Scotland website for up to date traffic information and allow some extra time to reach their destination.”
