Drivers have been warned to expect delays for the next three months as the £1m upgrade of a railway bridge is set to get underway in Glasgow.
Temporary lane closures will be in place to allow the upgrading of the bridge over the railway on Dalsholm Road near Kelvindale station from Monday until November this year.
The bridge will be strengthened, with masonry repairs, the replacement of missing stonework, vegetation clearance work and the installation of new fencing all taking place.
A single lane road closure with 4-way traffic light control will be in place for the entire three-month project.
Traffic will be impacted on Dalsholm Road, Cleveden Road, Skaethorn Road and Temple Road but train services will be unaffected.
Stephen Orr, project manager, Network Rail, said: “We’ve worked with Glasgow City Council to plan and deliver the work required and have found a way to do this while avoiding the need to close the road completely.
“While we appreciate that disruption to the road network is never ideal, carrying out an extensive programme of repair and maintenance on the structure now will keep it operational for longer without any further significant interventions.
“We thank everyone for their patience and will carry out this work as quickly as possible.”
A temporary compound area will be located behind Maryhill station for the duration of the project.
