ESSENTIAL drainage works will start at a busy Dumfries roundabout next week.
Amey, on behalf of Transport Scotland, is undertaking the scheme on the A701 at Tinwald Downs Roundabout from Monday, January 20, until Monday March 31.
It will be carried out under continuous 24-hour temporary traffic lights. Access for emergency service vehicles will be maintained throughout.
However, the scheme is weather dependent and may be cancelled or rescheduled if weather conditions are not favourable.
Amey say the works will benefit vehicles using this route each day, by improving the drainage of the carriageway and reducing the need for more extensive maintenance in the future.
