A SECTION of the A95 east of Keith is set for surfacing improvements worth £380,000.
Work is set to get underway on Monday, March 28 at 8am and will address defects on the road surface from Mulben to Calternach.
The work will take place in two phases with the first set to get underway on March 28 and finish on Friday, April 1.
The second phase will continue from April 11 and be completed April 15.
During both phases the improvements will be carried out between 8am and 5.30pm each day.
A 10mph convoy system will be in place during work hours.
Ian Stewart, BEAR Scotland's North East Unit Representative, said: "“This surfacing project near Keith has been designed to improve the general condition and safety of this section of the A95 for motorists.
"The traffic management is necessary to protect roadworkers as well as motorists. There may be some delays however our teams will do their best to conduct the works as quickly and safely as possible.
"We’ve also taken steps to minimise disruption by removing the traffic management between the two phases of the project.
"We thank motorists for the patience in advance while our teams carry out these essential improvements on the A95.
"We encourage them to plan their journeys in advance by checking the Traffic Scotland website for up to date travel information and allow some extra time to reach their destination."
