A9 Dualling Tomatin to Moy | Overnight Temporary Traffic Signals between Moy bridge and B815 Junction

Road users are advised that overnight temporary traffic signals will be in place on the A9 for approximately 5-weeks from Monday 22 September at various locations between the Moy Rail Bridge and the start of the existing dual carriageway approximately 1.5 miles south of the B815 junction to Fort Augustus.

These works are to enable sheet piling work to be carried out along the A9 which will enable excavations in the area and culvert installations.

The map below outlines the works area where traffic signals will be installed.

To undertake this work, temporary traffic signals will be implemented on the A9 at various locations on the work area. Both lanes of traffic will remain in operation and to minimise delays as much as possible, traffic signals will only be operational at one location in this area at any given time.

Works will take place between the hours of 19:30 – 06:00. There will be no work carried out on Saturday nights or Sunday nights, work will commence at 19:30 on Monday evenings, finishing at 6:00 on Saturday mornings.

We anticipate nearby residents will experience an increase in noise levels while these works are undertaken, as well as feeling some vibration while the piles are installed. To minimise disruption and keep noise levels as low as possible, we will use a vibratory hammer to drive the piles as opposed to impact driving. These works have been subject to consultation with The Highland Council and their Environmental Services Team before commencement.

Access for pedestrians and emergency services will be maintained at all times.

Road users are advised to approach the area the care and allow extra time for their journeys whilst these works are undertaken. The works are weather dependent and subject to change.
