A71 maintenance work

The Ayrshire Roads Alliance will be carrying out routine maintenance works, including grass cutting and litter picking, to sections of the A71 from Bellfield Interchange to Moorfield roundabout and to Corsehill roundabout.

The works will be carried out on Saturday 8 June and Sunday 16 June 2019 between 05:00 and approximately 20:00.

Due to the nature and location of the works, it will be necessary to implement full carriageway closures on Saturday 8 June, carriageway closures in both directions will be in place between the Moorfield Roundabout and the North Ayrshire Council boundary /Corsehill Roundabout. No traffic will be permitted.

Full carriageway closures will also be in place on Sunday 16 June, between the Bellfield Interchange and Moorfield Roundabout. A carriageway closure will also be in place to the off /on ramps to B7038 Campbell Street, Kilmarnock. No traffic will be permitted.

The full carriageway closures and works will be signed throughout for the duration of the works, and a road diversion each way will be in place.

The Ayrshire Roads Alliance, on behalf of East Ayrshire Council, apologise in advance for the inconvenience these works will inevitably cause to the travelling public in and around this area of Kilmarnock. However, these essential maintenance works are required to improve and enhance the A71 road corridor.
