New overnight roadworks near Glasgow Airport
29.11.08
Motorists face night time disruption on the A8 in Greenock. Drivers are begin urged to leave extra time for their journeys, and consider all travel options, especially if they are travelling to Glasgow Airport or into Glasgow itself.
New street lighting is to be installed between Cartsdyke roundabout (beside MacDonald’s) and Cartsburn Street. The £80,000 project begins on Monday and is scheduled for completion on Christmas Eve. Work will take place between 20:00 and 06:00 each night for two weeks with the road closing westbound on week one and eastbound on week two.
A clearly signed diversion will be in operation via Ratho Street, St Lawrence Street and Cartsburn Street when work is taking place overnight. To complete the work there will be some inside lane closures operating during daytime, off-peak, hours.
Amey, on behalf of Transport Scotland, will replace existing lights on both sides of the road with new aluminium columns which don’t corrode, reducing further maintenance. Forty-three lighting columns will be replaced with 39 new energy efficient columns with single lanterns. The level of light will remain the same.
