A99 Hempriggs | Daytime Resurfacing Works
On behalf of Transport Scotland, BEAR Scotland will be carrying out essential surface improvements on the A99 South of Wick at Hempriggs.
Works are set to take place over 10 days, from the morning of Monday 29 June to the evening of Friday 10 July, between 7am and 7pm each day. No work will be carried out on Saturday and Sunday.
To protect roadworkers and motorists, there will be a lane closure with a convoy in place each day. Outwith working hours, a speed restriction of 30mph will be in place as traffic will be running over a temporary surface.
Euan Burnett, BEAR Scotland’s North West Planned Maintenance Manager, said: “This surfacing project on the A9 will help address defects and greatly improve the surface for motorists.
“Our teams will do all they can to complete the work as quickly and efficiently as they can. We thank the local community and road users for their patience in advance while we complete these works. We encourage motorists to plan ahead before setting out by checking the Traffic Scotland website for up-to-date travel information.”
Materials removed from the existing carriageway will be recycled using SEPA-approved methods.
