Falkirk area motorists warned stretch of motorway will be closed next week
The M9 Junction 4 southbound off-slip will be closed next week to allow investigation works to take place in advance of future resurfacing.
The road will be inaccessible by motorists between 7.30pm and 6am on the Monday, October 26 and Tuesday, October 27 as Transport Scotland’s operating
company, BEAR Scotland, investigate 676 metres of carriageway on the slip road from the motorway onto Lathallan Roundabout.
During these overnight closures, a signed diversion route will be in place.
Traffic will be directed to continue southbound on the M9 to turn at Junction 2 and return northbound to exit via the M9 Junction 4 northbound off-slip. This is expected to add an additional 13 minutes and 14 miles to journeys.
Tommy Deans, BEAR Scotland’s south-east network manager, said "Closing the slip road is essential to ensure the safety of both road users and our workforce during these resurfacing works.
"We’ll do this overnight to minimise disruption as much as possible.”
