Further to contacting Amey about the progress of essential drainage work on vulnerable flood sites on the A78 between Seamill and the Waterside Hotel, I have been advised that works will continue.
The drainage works are now scheduled to complete by Friday 03 May 2024.
Unfortunately, Amey has advised that challenging ground conditions including the discovery of historic utilities assets as well as a high-water table and sand all impacted the excavations to install the new drainage system.
Amey has thanked local residents and road users for their continued patience as these works progress and apologised for any inconvenience caused.
The works are carried out under 24-hour temporary traffic lights installed at this location.
Once complete, this scheme will benefit around 10,600 vehicles using this route each day, by improving how the drainage and footways operate in this area, reducing the need for more extensive maintenance in the future.
