Temporary closures of both the C1157 and C1174 roads near Fornighty are due to begin on Monday, February 3 also for BT/Openreach works.
Traffic management with signed diversions will be in place and, again, local access will be maintained.
Flagging up both closures in his latest email newsletter local councillor Paul Oldham has also shared the news that a contract has now been awarded to repair damage to a bridge parapet on the currently closed U2297 road at Drumduan Mill.
“A contract has now been awarded to repair the bridge however, due to the nature of repairs required, lime mortar will be used to repair the cracked and damaged arch barrel deck as it is more resistant to moisture and water ingress,” he said.
“Lime mortar needs dry and warm weather in order to set and cure properly and so it is anticipated that repairs will commence in mid March at the earliest.”
