Scotland TranServ, on behalf of Transport Scotland, will carry out over 1km of resurfacing works between Hillowton to Dunmuir Road and Blackpark Underpass to Carlingwark Lane beginning on Friday 20 May.
Due to the nature of the works, and to ensure the safety of both our workforce and road users, a total road closure will be in place east and westbound from 7.00pm on Friday 20 May to 6.00am on Monday 23 May. Overnight closures will then be in operation from Monday 23 until Saturday 28 May to allow for completion of the works. Traffic will be diverted along A745/B736 via Castle Douglas.
Andy Fraser, Operating Company Representative, Scotland TranServ said:
“This essential carriageway maintenance scheme will improve the resilience of this section of the A75, which is used by over 5000 road users each day.
“We have done everything we can to plan these works at the weekend and overnight when traffic flows are lighter in order to minimise disruption to local residents and the travelling public.”
