FIVE nights of road works will commence on Monday for a £150,000 resurfacing scheme on the A76 near Dumfries.

Scotland TranServ will resurface 660 metres of the A76 at Holywood,

And they will be using an overnight convoy system from 7 pm to 6 am from Monday June 25 for five nights.

Lee Donnelly, Scotland TranServ assistant engineer, said: “We’ve worked closely with the local community to ensure the works cause minimal impact to commuters, and on forthcoming events. 

“This is the second project in a £1.5million resurfacing programme for the A76 through Dumfries and Galloway and into East Ayrshire.

“This £150,000 scheme will improve the quality of this trunk road, which connects many communities in and around Dumfries to Kilmarnock and Scotland’s busy central belt. 

“A number of other resurfacing projects will follow over the next few months as Scotland TranServ, on behalf of Transport Scotland, invests to improve the surface of the A76.”
