Essential carriageway maintenance works are being carried out on the A823 between B914 Saline Road and Fife boundary at Powmill from Monday 1st June to Friday 12th June 2026 during week days only.
Due to the narrow carriageway, for health and safety of our workforce and travelling public it will be necessary to close the road to through traffic for the duration of the works.
Access will be maintained for residents as well as access for emergency services at all times.
Thank you for your patience and co-operation as we’re improving the road network on the A823.
