A96 roadworks near Huntly: Overnight resurfacing at Bin Forest to begin this weekend
Motorists are being advised of upcoming roadworks on the A96 north of Huntly, as Amey begins resurfacing work near Bin Forest on Sunday, October 19.
The £374,000 project, commissioned by Transport Scotland, will cover around 975 metres of the trunk road - from 526 metres south of the Bin Forest Walks junction to 449 metres north.
For the safety of both workers and motorists, overnight convoy operations will run from 7.30pm to 6.30am between Sunday, October 19 and Wednesday, October 22. Delays of up to four minutes are expected during these times.
Daytime traffic lights will also be in place from 6.30am to 7.30pm between Monday, October 20 and Wednesday, October 22, allowing deeper resurfacing sections to cool. A final convoy is scheduled for Monday, October 27, between 8am to 3.30pm, to install road studs.
Transport Scotland has advised that all work is weather-dependent and may be rescheduled if conditions are unsuitable.
