Temp traffic lights overnight Thu 12/Fri 13

Overnight temporary traffic signals A9, south of the Dalmagarry realignment – between 7pm on Thursday 12 November and 7am on Friday 13 November.

Road users are advised that temporary traffic signals will be in place overnight on the A9, south of the Dalmagarry realignment on Thursday 12 November to facilitate preparation works ahead of switching traffic from the existing A9 to the new northbound carriageway.

During these works, temporary traffic signals will be used to stop traffic, allowing vehicles to be escorted safely through a short 160-metre lane closure located south of the Dalmagarry realignment.

Once through the works area, road users can continue their journey as normal. These traffic management measures are essential to allow our workforce to carry out works safely in close proximity to the live A9 carriageway. The map below shows the location of the works.

The overnight works will take place between 7pm on Thursday 12 November and 7am on Friday 13 November.

The map below outlines the working areas.

There will be no impact on National Cycle Network Route 7 or access to and from Ruthven Road.

Pedestrian access and access for emergency services will be maintained at all times.

The signals will be manually operated to help manage traffic flows and minimise delays wherever possible. However, some minor disruption and slight delays to journey times can be expected.

Pedestrian and emergency services access will be maintained at all times.

All works are weather dependent and may be subject to change at short notice.
