Road users are being advised of significant traffic management changes on the A9 at Dalmagarry as work continues on the Tomatin to Moy dualling project.

Overnight works will begin on Monday 13 April, 2026, with temporary traffic signals and a convoy system in place for approximately four nights.

The measures will operate between 7pm and 6am each night, running through to Friday 17 April.

During these hours, vehicles will be held at temporary traffic lights before being guided safely through the works area by a convoy vehicle.

The signals will be staffed at all times, and while some disruption is expected, delays are anticipated to be minimal.

These overnight works are part of preparations for a larger change to the road layout, which will come into effect from Friday 17 April.

From that date, both lanes of the A9 will be temporarily realigned at Dalmagarry to allow construction of a new bridge on the future dual carriageway.

The realignment will see traffic diverted onto a temporary route to the west of the existing road before rejoining the main carriageway further north.

The temporary section will begin around 250 metres south of the current Ruthven road junction and reconnect approximately 250 metres south of the B9154 Moy South junction.

As part of the changes, the access point from the A9 to Ruthven road will also be repositioned.

The new junction will be located around 100 metres south of the existing access.

Drivers wishing to access Ruthven road will exit at the new junction, travel a short distance north along the existing A9 and then turn onto Ruthven road as normal.

Clear signage will be installed throughout the area to guide road users safely through the new layout.

The temporary road alignment and revised access arrangements are expected to remain in place until early 2027.

The A9 dualling programme remains one of Scotland’s largest infrastructure projects, aimed at improving safety, reducing journey times and supporting economic growth across the Highlands.

Motorists are being encouraged to plan ahead, allow extra time for journeys and follow all signage while the works are underway.
