DRIVERS have been warned of possible delays with the start of £90,000 work on the A82 in West Dunbartonshire.

The work, described as essential maintenance, begins tonight and will see a contraflow in place for three nights.

A total closure will be in place at Strowans Well Road, Barnhill Road, Greenhead Road, Strowans Road and Dunbrittan Road. Manual traffic lights will allow vehicles to leave and enter Barnhill Road.

Andy Fraser, of Scotland TranServ said: “This essential maintenance scheme will be carried out to benefit local residents and almost 45,000 motorists travelling on this busy stretch of trunk road each day.

“We understand the importance of the A82 and its vital links to Glasgow and Loch Lomond and the Trossachs therefore we have programmed the works overnight when traffic flows are lighter to help minimise disruption.”
