Works will start next Wednesday (February 2) over eight days for £340,000 surface improvement works south of Kinveachy.

They will address defects in the road surface on the Aviemore-Keith road.

The improvements will be carried out between 8am and 5.30pm each day, with surfacing due to be completed by 5.30pm on Friday 11 February, subject to weather conditions.

No works will be undertaken over the weekend period.

Temporary traffic lights with a 10mph convoy system will be in place during working hours.

The convoy system will be removed outwith working hours but the lights will be left in place at night.

Ian Stewart, BEAR Scotland’s North East Unit Representative, said: “This surfacing project near Aviemore has been designed to improve the general condition and safety of this section of the A95 for motorists.

“The traffic management is essential to ensure the safety of both road workers and motorists.

"Regrettably there will be some delays but our teams will do all they can to complete the scheme as safely and quickly as possible.

“We thank motorists for the patience in advance while our teams carry out these essential improvements on the A95.

"We encourage them to plan their journeys in advance by checking the Traffic Scotland website for up to date travel information and allow some extra time to reach their destination.”

Roadworks have been on-going at Granish and at another location south of Kinveachy this past week.
