Grant Street in Inverness set to be partially closed for road improvement works this summer
Road improvement works in Inverness set to start in June will require a temporary and partial road closure, Highland Council has announced.
Works to improve the raised road surface and footway with new kerbs and tactile paving on Grant Street will include the junctions of Lower Kessock Street/PumpgateStreet and Lochalsh Road/Grant Street.
Works are expected to start on Monday, June 9 and last for approximately five weeks, with a section of the road to be closed for five days between July 7 and 11.
A Highland Council spokesperson said: “The area affected is from West of Nelson Street through to Lower Kessock Street.
“Diversions will be in place and will be signed. Traffic travelling from Waterloo Bridge will be diverted from Grant Street by Nelson Street and India Street to Lower Kessock Street/Thornbush Road or by Gilbert Street to Lochalsh Road.”
Outwith the period of road closure, the works will be managed by traffic control to allow access through Grant Street.
Day-to-day traffic management will be carried out by the on-site contractor who will ensure that any disruption associated with the works is kept to a minimum.
