Falkirk drivers face disruption on Friday night when a motorway slip road closes for essential carriageway repairs.

BEAR Scotland will close the exit slip road from the M9 southbound at Junction 4 (Lathallan) from 7.30pm to 6am on Friday evening, November 13.

Drivers who need to leave at Junction 4 will be diverted to Junction 2, where they can turn and head north on the M9 to exit at the Junction 4 northbound off-slip.

The diversion will add approximately 14 minutes and 14.2 miles to affected journeys. Emergency vehicles will have access at all times.

Tommy Deans, BEAR Scotland’s South East Network Manager, said: “It’s necessary to close this slip road at M9 Junction 4 to allow us to carry out repairs to the carriageway.

“We’ll do this at night to minimise disruption, however please plan ahead and allow extra time for the diversion if you need to use this route.”
