ESSENTIAL WOODLAND MANAGEMENT ON THE A77 AT BANKFIELD ROUNDABOUT IN AYR COMMENCES FRIDAY 24TH MARCH 2023

Amey, on behalf of Transport Scotland as part of the Network Management Contract for the South-West Trunk Road Unit, are undertaking the essential removal of dangerous and diseased trees on the A77 at Bankfield Roundabout in Ayr on Friday 24th March 2023.  

This scheme forms part of our Tree and Woodland Maintenance Management Strategy where we are taking essential steps to combat the effects of Ash Dieback along our road network. It benefits vehicles using this route each day, by improving the safety of the carriageway and reducing the risk that diseased trees pose to road users. 

Work will take place under an offside lane closure on the Bankfield Roundabout from 7pm on Friday 24th March until 6am on Saturday 25th March 2023. We thank road users for their patience and co-operation while this essential work takes place. 

Access for emergency service vehicles will be maintained throughout these works. 

Please note, all schemes are weather dependent and may be cancelled or rescheduled if weather conditions are not favourable.
