• Three nights of closures to commence on Monday 10 July 2023

BEAR Scotland, Transport Scotland’s operating company, is set to resurface 612 metres of the M9 junction 9 southbound on-slip.

To allow the works to be carried out safely, the M9 junction 9 southbound on-slip will be closed from 19:30 until 06:00 on Monday 10 July to Thursday 13 July.

Traffic will be diverted via the M9 northbound carriageway to junction 10, returning south to M9 junction 9, where motorists will be able to resume their journey. This diversion will add approximately twelve minutes and 10.3 miles to affected journeys.

Access for emergency vehicles will be maintained at all times.

Tommy Deans, BEAR Scotland’s South East Network Manager, said: “These surfacing works will significantly improve safety for motorists on this section of the M9.

““We’ve planned the works to take place overnight to minimise disruption and will do all we can to complete the project as quickly as possible.”

Consultation has been carried out with emergency services and other relevant stakeholders to share information about the project in advance.

All works are weather dependent and subject to postponement in the event of adverse conditions.
