(UPDATE 30/10/24) Please be advised that due to operational issues, overnight closures on the A75 at Auchenlarie will now take place between Tuesday 29th October and Tuesday 5th November 2024 between the hours of 8pm and 6am each night. There will be no overnight work on the evenings of Saturday 2nd November or Sunday 3rd November. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
Amey, on behalf of Transport Scotland, is undertaking an essential package of resurfacing works on the A75 at Auchenlarie and Mossyard. Works will take place at Mossyard from Sunday 29th September until 6am on Friday 4th October, then they will move to Auchenlarie from 8pm on Monday 7th October until Sunday 3rd November 2024.
This work will take place under total overnight closures between 8pm and 6am each night from Sunday 29th September until Friday 11th October, with all traffic management being removed by 6am on Saturday 12th October. There will then be a pause in the works to accommodate the October half term holidays, and overnight works will re-commence from Monday 28th October until Saturday 2nd November 2024. Traffic management will be removed by 6am on Sunday 3rd November.
Signed diversions will be in place and will operate as follows:
Westbound traffic will leave the A75 at Castle Douglas, take the A713 north to Ayr and the first exit at Bankfield Roundabout on to the southbound A77. Traffic will continue to Girvan and the A714 and re-join the A75 at Newton Stewart. Eastbound traffic will follow the route in reverse.
This diversion is for through traffic and is estimated to take two and a half hours.
Local access will be maintained between Newton Stewart and the works area, and the works area and Castle Douglas.
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 condition of the carriageway and reducing the need for more extensive maintenance in the future.
