Sections of the A977 Gartarry Roundabout will be closed on the nights of 2 and 3 October, to allow Transport Scotland’s operating company BEAR Scotland to carry out carriageway resurfacing works.
Between 19:30 and 06:30 on the night of Wednesday 2 October, the southern section of the roundabout will be closed, with no access to or from the Clackmannan Road or the A977 to the south. A signed diversion will be in place between Gartarry Roundabout and the A876, via the A907 west through Alloa, the A91 and the A905 to Bowtrees Junction.
Between 19:30 and 06:30 on the night of Thursday 3 October, the northern section of the roundabout will be closed, with no access to or from the Clackmannan Road or the A977 to the north. A signed diversion will be in place between Gartarry Roundabout and the A977 to the north, via the A907, the A91 and the B913.
Consultations have been carried out with emergency services and other relevant stakeholders to share information about the project in advance.
All work is weather dependent and subject to postponement in the event of adverse conditions.
Tommy Deans, BEAR Scotland’s South East Network Manager said: “These surfacing improvements will address and repair defects in the road surface such as potholes and cracking, creating safer and smoother journeys for motorists.
“It is essential for the safety of the workforce that we close the carriageway during the works, however we’ve scheduled them during overnight hours to minimise any disruption.
“We thank motorists in advance for their patience and understanding.”
