Scotland TranServ is to begin a £475,000 road improvement project in Dumfries and Galloway.
The company will work with DG First and sub-contractor Webfell to address potholes and surface cracking on the A75 between Annan and Gretna.
The contractors will use the Crack and Seat method to improve the road surface between Riggmoor and Nivenhill.
Work is scheduled to begin at 7pm on Friday, 10 March, until 6am on Monday, 13 March. Road closures and diversions will be in place.
Jane Maclennan, Scotland TranServ’s Assistant Engineer on the project said: "Potholes and surface cracking are widely recognised issues on the A75, and working with Transport Scotland, we’re doing everything possible to identify the most pertinent locations and programme improvement works to address these defects.
"The A75 is one of the longest routes in Dumfries and Galloway, and we’re working hard to prioritise the most pressing road surface issues. We have scheduled the most significant element of the project for a weekend, in order to reduce the impact on commuters, businesses and families."
