The scheme is part of Scottish Water's £250m, five-year programme of work, launched in 2013, to improve river water quality and the natural environment and tackle flooding.

To continue work on the project, a short stretch of Aikenhead Road from its junction with Curtis Avenue to its junction with Curling Crescent will be reduced from four lanes to one lane, with temporary traffic lights for single-file traffic in both directions from 16 October. Diversions will be in place. Work is expected to last for two months.
The road traffic management will enable Scottish Water to work on the construction of new pipes and increased storage which will help tackle flooding in the area.
