Freuchie bus stop improvements
Bus stop improvements will begin next week on a section of the A92 at Freuchie.
The £15,000 works involve the installation of bus shelters and road markings as well as a crossing point to enhance the bus stop provision currently in place in the community.
The work will get under way on Tuesday and is expected to take up to two weeks to complete.
Roadworks will be in place during off-peak hours only, between 9.30am and 3.30pm, in an effort to minimise their impact upon road users.
Temporary traffic lights will be in place on the A92 and local road closures restricting access onto the A92 from both Freuchie Mill Road and the B936 will be in place each day.
Traffic will be diverted via New Inn Roundabout and Freuchie High Street.
Andy Thompson, BEAR Scotland’s north-east representative, said: “Safety is a top priority for both BEAR Scotland and Transport Scotland and this scheme is part of our commitment to that.
“The improvements planned in Freuchie will mean easier and safer access to the bus stop facilities for all pedestrians, including improved access points and upgraded road markings.
“The works are being carried out during off-peak daytime hours to minimise the impact to motorists but we encourage road users to plan their journey in advance and allow some extra journey time.”
