The M74 Completion project will benefit the local economy by creating new jobs locally and reducing congestion on roads across Glasgow. The new stretch of road will also bring economic benefits to Scotland as a whole and will improve transport links across the west of Scotland, reduce road accidents and improve the environment.
David Welsh, Interlink M74 Joint Venture Project Director said: "We are aware this is a busy stretch of road and we apologise in advance for any inconvenience.
"These works are essential preparations for the new viaduct being constructed in this area and we have planned the work in such a way as to minimise the disruption for road users.
"We would urge drivers to pay attention to fixed and variable signs regarding the short diversion we will have in place and to be patient while this important work takes place."
