SCHEME EXTENSION:

Due to operational issues this scheme has been extended and further work is due to take place overnight from Sunday 13th October to Friday 18th October.

The essential maintenance will continue to be carried out under overnight road closures of the A95 between 7.30pm and 6.30am.

The diversion route and amnesties to allow traffic through the works area will remain unchanged.

Northbound traffic will leave the A95 at the A939 through Grantown-on-Spey and continue to turn right onto the A940 at Dava, following to Forres before turning right onto the A96 and continuing to Elgin and taking the third exit at the roundabout onto the A941 to rejoin the A95 at Craigellachie. Southbound traffic will take the route in reverse.

Amnesties to allow traffic through the works area will be available at 8.30pm, 9.30pm, 10.30pm, 11.30pm, 1.30am, 3am and 5am each night. Please note that traffic will be allowed through one direction at a time so delays are possible.

All work is scheduled to be completed by 6.30am on Saturday 19th October.

RESCHEDULED START DATE:

Due to operational issues this scheme will now start on Wednesday 2nd October.

A signed diversion will be in place.

Northbound traffic will leave the A95 at the A939 through Grantown-on-Spey and continue to turn right onto the A940 at Dava, following to Forres before turning right onto the A96 and continuing to Elgin and taking the third exit at the roundabout onto the A941 to rejoin the A95 at Craigellachie.
