Update (16/10/24): Due to weather delaying phase one of the works on the A9 north of Killen junction, works at Tore Roundabout will now be completed by the morning of Wednesday 6 November.
BEAR Scotland, Transport Scotland’s North West trunk road operating company, is set to start essential resurfacing improvements on the A9 Tore Roundabout and north of the Roundabout.
Phase 1: North of Killen Junction:
Resurfacing improvements will start north of the Killen junction at 7pm on Sunday 29 September and will last nine nights with all works scheduled to be completed by 6am on the morning of Friday 18th of October. No works will take place on Friday or Saturday Nights.
Phase 2: South of Killen Junction and Tore Roundabout:
Resurfacing improvements will then start south of the Killen Junction and on the Tore Roundabout at 8pm on Sunday 20 October and will last a further seven nights with all works scheduled to be completed by 6am on the morning of Saturday 19 of October. No work will take place on Friday 25th or Saturday 26th October.
To ensure the safety of both workers and road users, temporary traffic signals with a convoy system and 10mph speed limit will be used each night. The A9 will be open outwith working hours to keep disruption to a minimum, with a speed restriction of 30mph in place as traffic will be running over a temporary surface.
Access through the works site for emergency services will be maintained at all times.
Ian Stewart, BEAR Scotland’s North West Representative said: “This crucial surfacing project on the A9 between Tore Roundabout and the B9169 will fix existing defects and significantly enhance the driving experience for all motorists.
“Our teams are committed to executing these works quickly and with safety as our top priority. We extend our gratitude to the local community and road users for their patience while we complete the improvements.
“To minimise delays, we recommend that motorists plan their journeys in advance by consulting the Traffic Scotland website for real-time travel updates.”
