A spokesperson for Falkirk Council said: “Safe pedestrian access will be maintained at all times, but it is necessary to close the road to vehicular traffic for the four weeks duration to ensure the works can be completed safely.
“A signed diversion is in place and discussions regarding re-routing of bus services took place with First in advance of the works starting.
“While these works will cause inconvenience to road users and the public, the works are over a relatively short period of time and are essential to ensure the structural integrity of the bridge and public safety.”
