A9 to get new roundabout north of Tomatin
A temporary roundabout on the A9 between Tomatin and Moy will come into operation later this month as part of the dualling project.
The roundabout is necessary to safely manage road users and site traffic at the main site compound at Invereen ahead of major construction work starting.
A speed restriction of 30mph will also be introduced on the approaches to and from the roundabout.
A Transport Scotland spokesperson said: “Works will predominantly take place offline of the A9, however, overnight temporary traffic signals will be required ahead of implementation to allow for surfacing and lining works.
“It is expected that the roundabout will become operational on Thursday 24 April at which point the 30mph restriction on approach will also be implemented.
“Pedestrian and emergency access will be maintained at all times and public transportation links will remain active along the route.”
Road users are advised to approach the area with care and allow extra time for their journeys whilst works are undertaken.
All works are weather dependent and may be cancelled or rescheduled if weather conditions are poor.
