Works will commence at 6pm on Saturday 18th May, working continuously to 6am Monday 20th May. Works will recommence overnight only from Monday 20th May – Thursday 25th May (8pm to 6am). During these times a closure of Biggar High Street will be in place with no through traffic permitted. Amey are in constant communication with the emergency services prior to construction to ensure emergency access will be maintained and there is no disruption to their service. During the weekday overnight periods, nosier operation will be programmed early evening to avoid excessive noise disturbance during the night, and will be contained to a small area per night with each section being reopened to the public the following morning. By carrying out the works using the above proposals it will be safest and quickest way to complete construction whilst minimising disruption to the local community as much as feasibly possible. Amey intend to carry out a letter drop to those within the immediate closure area during week commencing 22nd April to address any concerns residents may have. Any comments cannot be addressed by Biggar CC, but will be passed to Amey. A map of the diversion route which will be in place for trunk road traffic is shown here.
