Carriageway resurfacing works will take place from 8pm until 6am on Almada Street, from Douglas Street to Peacock Cross, from Monday 8 June.

The works are expected to last four consecutive nights and be completed by 6am on Thursday 11 June.

The overnight closures will mean daytime access remains unaffected.

During the overnight works, a diversion route will be in place.

For eastbound traffic the alternative route will be Burnbank Road, Clydesdale Street, Douglas Street, Caird Street, Bothwell Road and Almada Street.

For westbound traffic the alternative route will be Muir Street, Palace Grounds Road, Blackswell Lane, Low Patrick Street, Duke Street, Brandon Street and Union Street.

Head of Roads, Transportation and Fleet Services, Colin Park, said: “We have scheduled these works to take place overnight in a bid to minimise disruption, but we also apologise for any inconvenience that may occur during these essential road improvement works.

“We would request that all road users allow additional time for all journeys which involve the use of Almada Street during the times indicated and that they plan their journey accordingly.

“We are sure everyone will appreciate the improved condition of the road when the works are complete.”
