Network Rail will begin improving the railway bridge on Biggar Road from Monday, 08 August.
The five-month programme involves replacing the bridge deck and raising the height of the parapets as part of the Scottish Government's programme of electrification.
Members of the project team and contractors will attend the community drop-in event to answer any questions from the public about the scheme. The exhibition will take place between 5pm – 7pm in the Senior Citizen Centre, Main St, Cleland on Wednesday, 10 August.

Michelle McCaig, Network Rail's project manager for the bridge clearance work, said: "Closing Biggar Road is unavoidable to deliver the work safely and we have worked with the council to put in place a diversion route for road traffic during this time. Pedestrian access, and for those on bikes, will be maintained throughout.
"We appreciate that the road closure will cause some disruption locally, but experience has shown that this is the safest and most efficient way to deliver the work in a way that minimises the overall disruption for the community."
The electrification programme is to be completed by 2019.
