DEBRIS CLEARANCE AT M9 JUNCTION 10 RIVER FORTH BRIDGE

June 2, 2022

  • Slip road closure Sunday 26 June 2022

The slip road from the A84 northbound onto the M9 at Junction 10 Craigforth will be closed on Sunday 26 June from 6am to 3pm, to allow Transport Scotland’s operating company BEAR Scotland to remove trapped debris behind the bridge that carries the motorway over the River Forth.

Traffic wishing to join the M9 northbound from the A84 will be directed onto the M9 southbound to turn at M9 Junction 9 Pirnhall Roundabout.

Chris Tracey, BEAR Scotland’s South East Unit Bridges Manager, said: “It is essential to close this slip road on 26 June to allow safe access to remove trapped debris at the M9 River Forth Bridge.

“The debris will be removed using rope access, divers and a crane, so we’ve scheduled the works during the day for the safety of our operatives.

“Motorists planning to use this route on 26 June should plan ahead and allow some extra time for their journey.”

All work is weather dependent and may be cancelled or postponed in the event of adverse conditions.
