In the last three months, over £2.5 million has been spent on maintaining trunk roads in Dumfries and Galloway.
Operating company representative for Scotland TranServ, Andy Fraser, said: "We have carefully programmed these works by measuring traffic flows at this location and planning our operations over the shortest time possible to help minimise disruption.
"After considering all of the available options, it is necessary that we implement a full road closure to ensure the works can be delivered safely and efficiently."
