lonewolfie Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Road users in North Ayrshire planning to tackle festive shopping this weekend have been warned of major travel disruption due to a road closure. Around £185,000 of resurfacing work on the A737 Dalgarven at High Monk Castle Farm (south of Dalry) will begin on Friday, December 9. Scotland TranServ, on behalf of Transport Scotland, will carry out 940m of resurfacing over one weekend on a road which is used by 15,000 motorists each day. This will take place 24 hours a day from 8pm on Friday until 6am on Monday, December 12. A total closure of the A737 in both directions will be required on the junction of the B714 to the Museum of Ayrshire Country Life. Drivers will be diverted from the A737 to Sharon Street and onto the B780 to Chapelhill Roundabout, then onto the A78 to Pennyburn Roundabout towards Kilwinning. Traffic will then head onto the A738 before rejoining the A737. North and southbound routes will follow the same diversion Andy Fraser, operating company representative, Scotland TranServ said: “This resurfacing scheme is vital to ensure we prolong the lifespan of the road surface, benefiting road users for years to come. “We have considered alternative methods and timings for delivering these works, but at this particular location they can only be safely carried out under a full road closure however local access will be maintained during this time.” Motorists can keep up to date with real time traffic information by visiting www.trafficscotland.org or following @TrafficScotland on Twitter.
