A701 Locharbriggs To Amisfield | Resurfacing

Amey, on behalf of Transport Scotland, is undertaking carriageway resurfacing on the A701, one mile north of Locharbriggs from 8pm on Thursday 28th August until 6am on Friday 29th August 2025.  
 

To facilitate these works a total overnight closure of the A701 at this location will be required with signed diversion routes in operation.  
 

Diversion 
Northbound traffic will take the A75 east to join the A709 eastbound at Brownrigg Roundabout, continuing to Lockerbie and turning left onto the B7076 to head north to join the A701 southbound south of Beattock. 
Southbound traffic will head north on the A701 and turn right onto the B7076 south of Beattock, continuing south to Lockerbie and turning right onto the A709 to head west to Brownrigg Roundabout, before joining the A75 westbound to reach the A701. 
 

Access for emergency service vehicles will be maintained throughout these works. 
 

Please note, all schemes are weather dependent and may be cancelled or rescheduled if weather conditions are not favourable. 
 

This scheme will benefit vehicles using this route each day, by improving the carriageway surfacing to increase ride quality.  
 

Road users are thanked for their patience and understanding while this work is being undertaken.
