Motorists warned to expect delays

TRAFFIC queues and chaos are expected to hit motorists when a busy slip road closes in August for four months.

Commuters travelling to Stirling or Glasgow on the A80 will be affected by the closure of the A8011 northbound slip road at Roadside, Cumbernauld.

The disruption will last from Sunday, August 1, until Tuesday, November 30, as part of construction work for the M80 upgrade. However, Alex Ramsay, assistant business manager (Roads Operations) North said the length of the closure may be reduced.
