A725 Blantyre | Scottish Water Works

A724 Glasgow Road and A725 East Kilbride Expressway
7th of April 2025, 9:30am to 7th of April 2025, 9:00pm

Scottish Water is advising road users of a road closure in Blantyre for essential maintenance.

The slip road entrance from the A724 Glasgow Road (west-bound) on to the A725 East Kilbride Expressway main trunk route will be closed from 9.30am until 9pm on Monday, 7 April 2025.


Two-way temporary traffic lights will be in place on Glasgow Road and traffic will be diverted to the east-bound A724 Glasgow Road slip road entrance via the Herbertson Street roundabout. Drivers are advised to plan an alternative route to minimise any potential delays or disruptions. A Scottish Water spokesperson said: “We appreciate the road closure will cause some disruption for road users but can only thank them for their patience and understanding while we carry out this essential work."


The closure is required to allow operatives to safely replace a defective manhole cover on the carriageway.
