Local road users are set to benefit from over £120k of essential maintenance works on the A78 dual carriageway trunk road between Chapelhill and Sharphill Roundabouts, near to Three Towns Bypass, beginning on Monday 14 December 2015.
The resurfacing works by Scotland TranServ, operating on behalf of Transport Scotland, will take place on the southbound carriageway over three night time closures.
Safety is of the utmost importance and to protect our workforce and motorists the work will take place under a total closure of the A78 trunk road from 8.00pm to 8.00am, southbound only, between Chapelhill and Sharphill Roundabouts. A local diversion will be in place.
Diversion Route:
Motorists travelling southbound should leave A78 Montfode roundabout and join A738 Eglinton Rd / Parkhouse Rd. Follow A738 to Pennyburn roundabout and then rejoin A78.
Gordon Wilson, contract director, Scotland TranServ said:
“This essential maintenance scheme will improve the resilience of this section of the A78 for years to come.
“We have planned and programmed the works to minimise disruption to local residents and the travelling public, so these works will be carried during overnight closures, when traffic flows are lighter. ”
