A9 Drivers Advised of Short Delays During Bridge Beam Installation

Drivers travelling on the A9 between Tomatin and Moy are being warned to expect brief delays later this month as construction reaches another key stage on the dualling programme.

Temporary traffic management will be introduced from Monday 13 July to allow large bridge beams to be delivered and installed at the new underpasses at Lynebeg and Tomatin.

The work forms part of the ongoing A9 Dualling project between Tomatin and Moy.

From 13 July until 17 July, temporary traffic signals will operate at the A9 Tomatin North Junction and on the B9154 Moy Road near the new railway bridge at Lynebeg.

The traffic management will allow large construction vehicles to safely transport and position bridge beams for the new Lynebeg underpass.

From 20 July until 24 July, temporary traffic signals will move to the new Tomatin Link Road and the A9 at Tomatin North Junction while beams are installed at the new Tomatin underpass.

Traffic signals will operate on an all red phase for up to three minutes at a time, with a maximum of 20 activations each day between 8am and 7pm.

Staff will be on site throughout the works to help reduce delays and manage traffic safely.

Project officials say the controlled stoppages have been designed to keep disruption to a minimum while allowing the large beams to be moved into position safely.

Pedestrian access and emergency service access will be maintained throughout the works.

The A9 remains the Highlands’ main trunk route, with the Tomatin to Moy project forming one section of the wider programme to dual the road between Perth and Inverness.

Drivers are advised to allow a little extra time for journeys and note that the programme may change if weather conditions affect the work.

Please note that these dates may change depending on weather conditions.
