Trunk road operating company BEAR Scotland is to replace approximately 1,000 metres of boundary fence on the southbound M9 between Junctions 5 and 4 near Grangemouth and Polmont, in an investment by Transport Scotland worth £75,000.
Fencing replacement work will begin on Monday 3 March and is expected to continue for three to four weeks. Work will take place during the day from Monday to Friday.
For the safety of workers and road users, the hard shoulder on two sections of the M9 southbound will be closed until works are completed.
To reduce the project’s environmental impact, all existing fencing materials will be recycled.
Tommy Deans, BEAR Scotland’s South East Network Manager, said: “These upgrades to the boundary fence along the M9 will improve safety for both road users and local communities.
“We’ll do all we can to complete the works as quickly and safely as possible and thank the public in advance for their patience and understanding.”
