MacKenzie Construction has started work to install a new sewer in South Lanarkshire.
The project is taking place on the B7086 road near Auchenheath. The new sewer is being laid adjacent to the old one, which was damaged following a recent blockage.
As part of the scheme, a stretch of the B7086 will be closed for the duration of the works, which is expected to last up to one month.
Around 250 metres of the road north of the River Nethan Bridge will be shut and diversions are in place.
Bill Elliot, Scottish Water Regional Communities Manager for the area said: "We apologise for the inconvenience this road closure will cause but the essential sewer work needs to be completed with the traffic management in place due to safety concerns.
"The work will last for up to a month but there should be no impact on the water and waste water services for people in the area."
