Road closures ahead throughout August for M74 southbound route

Drivers are advised to take note of  a series of overnight road closures that are planned for a number of dates in August on the M74 motorway to the south east of Glasgow.

The M74 southbound will be shut between Junction 5 Raith and Junction 6 Hamilton for essential road surfacing works, with signed diversion routes in place for drivers.

Works will take place between 8pm and 6am each night and the carriageway will re-open out with these times.

The closures will take place overnight on the following dates:

• Monday 17 to Friday 21st August 2020 (inclusive)

• Monday 24 August 2020

• Tuesday 25 August 2020.

The closures have been planned to take place overnight to minimise disruption to traffic.

Signed diversion routes will be in operation as follows:

• M74 southbound traffic will be diverted via the A7071 Bothwell Road, the A72 Hamilton Palace Grounds and the A723 to re-join the M74 southbound at junction 6 Hamilton.

The works are weather dependent and may be cancelled or rescheduled if weather conditions are not favourable.

If you have any enquiries regarding these works, please contact us on 0800 042 0188 or info@scotroadspartnership.co.uk.
