As previously outlined, we are planning bridge beam deliveries and installations at the Dalmagarry structure in September 2026. We can now confirm that these will take place on Wednesday 2 September, Thursday 3 September, Friday 4 September, Tuesday 8 September Thursday 10 September and if required, Friday 11 September. 

All deliveries will occur at approximately 12noon apart from the delivery on 4 September which will take place at approximately 2pm. Due to the beams sizes, this will be done under the guidance of the Police Scotland. 

Temporary traffic signals in all below locations will operate on an “all red” phase for up to fifteen minutes at these times. 

What you need to know

Road users travelling on the A9 may encounter temporary traffic signals to allow these beams to travel to the Dalmagarry structure in three locations simultaneously.

  • Tomatin North Junction (A9 northbound): northbound traffic will be temporarily stopped to allow large construction vehicles to transport beams safely to the Dalmagarry structure.
  • Moy South Junction (B9154/A9): southbound traffic will be temporarily stopped to allow large construction vehicles to reverse safely into position at the Dalmagarry structure.
  • Ruthven Road Junction with the A9: traffic will be temporarily controlled to allow large construction vehicles to transport beams safely between the junction and the Dalmagarry structure.

Once the delivery is complete, road users travelling southbound may encounter temporary traffic signals on the A9 at the B9154 Moy South junction for a maximum 3-minute period to allow the large construction vehicle to safely leave the structure to travel northbound.

Additionally, road users may experience overnight temporary traffic signals on 12 September at approximately midnight on the Dalmagarry realignment, stopping northbound and southbound traffic to allow for the first beam to be installed safely as it is in close proximity to the existing A9 carriageway. We anticipate that this will take place around midnight with an “all red” phase initiated for a maximum of 10-minutes on one occasion only.

Pedestrian access will be maintained throughout the works, and emergency vehicles will continue to have access through the site at all times.
