The A1 southbound will be closed for carriageway repairs between Old Craighall and Wallyford Junction between 21:00 and 05:00 on the nights of Wednesday 17 July and Thursday 18 July.
A diversion route will be signposted via the A720 Edinburgh City Bypass to Millerhill Junction, the A68 to Salters Junction and the A6094. This will add approximately 2 miles and 6 minutes to affected journeys.
Access for emergency vehicles will be maintained at all times.
Transport Scotland’s operating company BEAR Scotland will carry out the works. Consultation has taken place with all relevant stakeholders to make them aware of the traffic management arrangements.
Tommy Deans, BEAR Scotland’s South East Network Manager, said: “We thank motorists and the local community in advance for their patience while we carry out these essential repairs. We’ll do all we can to complete the work as quickly and safely as possible.”
Motorists are encouraged to plan ahead before setting out by checking the Traffic Scotland website www.traffic.gov.scot for up-to-date travel information and allowing extra time for their journey.
All works are weather dependent and subject to postponement in the event of adverse conditions.
