A83 roadworks delayed

Roadworks on the A83 in Arrochar which were due to start this weekend have been postponed because of poor weather forecast.

A 10mph convoy system will now be in place between 5pm and 2am on Thursday November 1 and Friday February 2.

Contractors BEAR Scotland say traffic management will be removed outside working hours, with a 30mph speed limit in place as traffic will be travelling over a temporary surface.

Ian Stewart, BEAR Scotland’s north west representative said: “These resurfacing projects on the A83 will help address defects and greatly improve the road surface.

“The traffic management arrangements are essential for ensuring the safety of road workers and motorists. We’ve taken steps to limit the overall impact of the project by carrying out the work overnight.

“Our teams will do all they can to complete the works as quickly and safely as they can.

“We thank the local community and road users for their patience in advance while we complete this essential road improvement project.

“We encourage motorists to plan ahead before setting out by checking the Traffic Scotland website for up-to-date travel information.”
