Planned A9 works

Diversions on the A9 at Calvine will be in place for 20 nights for resurfacing works.

The essential works will commence at 7pm on Sunday March 24 on 360 metres of single carriageway at the Calvine junction just north of the House of Bruar.

A full closure of Calvine Junction is required.

The main A9 carriageway will remain open, but temporary traffic lights under convoy will be in place.

The works are scheduled to be completed by 6am on Friday, April 19, 2024.

There will be no works on Friday or Saturday nights.

BEAR Scotland north west representative Ian Stewart said: “This crucial surfacing project on the A9 north of House of Bruar will fix existing defects and significantly enhance the driving experience for all motorists.

“Our teams are committed to executing these works quickly and with safety as our top priority.

“We extend our gratitude to the local community and road users for their patience while we complete the improvements.

“To minimise delays, we recommend that motorists plan their journeys in advance by consulting the Traffic Scotland website for real-time travel updates.”
