Motorists have been warned to expect delays with a stretch of the A77 now partially closed during peak times.

Scotland TranServ has started works and repairs on the Clune Culvert located between Sandyford Roundabout and Whittlets Roundabout on the A77 southbound.

The works will require the closure of the nearside lane between 9.30am and 3.30pm from Monday, December 4, until Friday, December 15.

There will be no weekend working and the northbound carriageway will remain unaffected.

Scotland TranServ's operational delivery manager Gordon Gibney said: "This is an important programme of works to maintain and repair the Clune Culvert located on a busy stretch of the A77 Southbound.

"We have worked in collaboration with Police Scotland and the local authority in order to schedule the works for minimal disruption to the travelling public."
