Drivers are reminded that major roadworks are now underway on the A725 Bellshill Bypass, with restrictions expected to remain in place …for SIX months until April 2027.
Essential repairs to North Alderston Bridge at James Street mean motorists should expect delays in both directions.
🚧 What’s happening?
🔸 One lane open in each direction
🔸 Reduced speed limit of 30mph
🔸 Contraflow traffic management in place
🔸 James Street bridge closed to vehicles, but accessible to pedestrians and cyclists who dismount
🔸 Restrictions expected to continue until April 2027
The works are necessary to maintain the safety of the bridge, which is over 55 years old.
⚠️ Allow extra travelling time, particularly during peak hours, and consider alternative routes where possible.
