TRANSPORT SCOTLAND

THE SCOTTISH MINISTERS give notice that they have made the following Order temporarily prohibiting traffic, temporarily prohibiting overtaking and temporarily restricting the speed of vehicles on the lengths of road identified in this Notice.

The Order, which is required because works are being or are proposed to be executed on or near the lengths of road, will be in operation from **1st July 2024 until 1st October 2024**, but the prohibitions and restrictions contained in the Order will only be operational when the appropriate traffic signs are displayed.

No prohibition in the Order applies to vehicles being used in an emergency for fire brigade, ambulance, police or coastguard purposes or vehicles being used for carrying out the works. No speed restriction imposed by the Order applies to vehicles being used in the service of the Special Forces or vehicles being used in an emergency for coastguard purposes.

Where the closure of a carriageway on a dual carriageway road is involved the alternative route for traffic in relation to the lengths of road affected by the Order will be signposted.

Detailed descriptions of the alternative routes and the works being carried out can also be obtained at the following offices: 

Scottish Roads Partnership, 1E, Willow House, Kestrel View, Strathclyde Business Park, Bellshill, ML4 3PB, Telephone 0800 042 0188
