Roadworks which have led to huge traffic delays in Ayr are to continue — but will be restricted to overnight hours.
A full closure of the A77 bypass took place at the weekend as part of a £418,000 upgrade to the carriageway.
Police were deployed to manage huge tailbacks through town as vehicles were rerouted through some of Ayr's busiest streets.
The bypass, which has now reopened, will continue to close each night this week from 8pm and reopen at 6am.
Signed diversions are in place to manage traffic.
A77 southbound traffic will be diverted via Whitletts roundabout to take the third exit onto the A719 and at King Street roundabout, will take the first exit onto the A79, John Street.
To continue on the A79, traffic will take the third exit at the following roundabout onto Station Road.
Traffic will then join the A70, Holmston Road by taking the first exit at the next roundabout and at Holmston roundabout, traffic will take the third exit to re-join the A77 southbound where diversion will end.
Northbound traffic will follow the same diversion route but in reverse.
