RESURFACING work will begin this coming Monday evening on a section of the A96 at Oyne Fork between Huntly and Inverurie.

Improvements costing £225,000 are programmed to take place over five nights between 7.30pm and 6.30am, finishing on the morning of August 31.

A 10mph convoy system will be in place during the overnight project to ensure the safety of the workforce.

Commenting on the project, Andy Thompson of BEAR Scotland, said: "This £225,000 surfacing project has been designed to improve the general condition and safety of this section of the A96 for motorists.

"The resurfacing improvements have been scheduled to take place at night as well as avoiding weekend working to reduce any disruption to motorists as much as possible during the project.

"Our teams will do all they can to complete the project as quickly and safely as possible, however we encourage motorists to plan their journeys in advance and allow some extra time to reach their destination."
