The South East Scotland Trunk Roads (Temporary Prohibitions of Traffic and Overtaking and Temporary Speed Restrictions) (No. 12) Order 2024 is a new piece of legislation that will come into effect on December 19, 2024. The Order will impose temporary traffic restrictions on a number of trunk roads in South East Scotland.
The restrictions will be in place to allow for essential maintenance work to be carried out on the following roads:
- The A1 trunk road between Haddington and Dunbar
- The A198 trunk road between Tranent and Musselburgh
- The A7 trunk road between Hawick and Galashiels
The restrictions will come into effect at different times and dates on each road. Details of the restrictions, including the dates and times they will be in place, can be found on the Traffic Scotland website.
The restrictions will be in place for as short a period as possible, but they may be extended if the maintenance work takes longer than expected.
During the restrictions, traffic will be diverted via signed alternative routes. Motorists are advised to allow extra time for their journeys and to follow the diversion signs.
The Order also imposes a temporary speed limit of 30 mph on the A1 trunk road between Haddington and Dunbar. The speed limit will be in place for the duration of the maintenance work.
The Order is being made under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984.
