Although the road is signed with “Road Ahead Closed” the road is open overnight and at weekends with no restrictions.

During the working week, the team operate between approximately 8am and 5pm, however essential local movements can continue to pass freely throughout the day.

You are encouraged to use an alternative route if possible, so as to reduce disruption to the work and thereby help speed the completion of the work.

Delays of around 10 minutes should be expected for local traffic using Struan Road. This allows operatives to secure the work area and ensure it is safe to pass.

The aim is for two work sites to operate close to one another. When a vehicle arrives, the operative will make the site safe, allow the vehicle through, and then radio ahead to the second team so traffic is not held twice. This should limit delays to a single short wait, rather than multiple hold-ups along the route.
