DRIVERS face a road closure between Dalmellington and New Cumnock.

The B741 will undergo resurfacing works, starting on Monday February 13.

The works will last for up to ten working days between the new substation access road near Beoch to Dalmellington.

Ayrshire Roads Alliance have made the move to close a two and a half mile stretch to protect road workers.

The B741 will be closed from Monday to Friday between 7am until 6pm. The road will re-open each night and at weekends.

The works are weather dependant and may be delayed at times due to adverse weather conditions, work will continue on the next available day.

Drivers are being urged to allow extra time when planning their journey on these dates.

Advisory signs will be in place in advance of the works to alert the travelling public.

The Ayrshire Roads Alliance apologises for any inconvenience caused during the road works.
