A77, South of Girvan | Essential Resurfacing

Amey, on behalf of Transport Scotland, is undertaking essential resurfacing on the A77, south of Girvan, between Shallochpark Roundabout and Ainslie Manor, from Monday 18th August until Saturday 23rd August 2025 between the hours of 8pm and 6am each night.  

• This work will require overnight closures in this area and signed diversions will be in operation as follows: 
  Southbound traffic will exit the A77 at Shallochpark Roundabout onto the A714 and follow to North Barnkirk, turning right onto the unclassified road to South Barnkirk and then turning right onto the A75 and continuing westbound towards Stranraer before taking the A751 to Innermessan and rejoining the A77 northbound towards Cairnryan. Alternatively, traffic can continue on the A714 through Newton Stewart to join the A75 eastbound. 
• Northbound traffic will take the A77 southbound and turn left onto the A751 then left onto the A75 eastbound towards Newton Stewart, turning left onto the unclassified road at South Barnkirk then left onto the A714 at North Barnkirk and following to the A77 Shallochpark Roundabout. 
   

Delays are anticipated for those who must follow the diversion route - approximately an additional 35 mins for journeys between Girvan and Stranraer. 

There will additionally be a lane closure on Shallochpark Roundabout during the overnight closures, and daytime Temporary Traffic Lights in place on the A77 between 6am and 8pm on Tuesday 19th, Wednesday 20th and Thursday 21st August. 

Ferry traffic will be able to access Cairnryan from Stranraer throughout the works. 
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 and safety of the carriageway in this location. 

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