Work is to begin on a £750,000 road network improvement project in Fife.

Carriageway resurfacing will start on the A912 Gateside to Fife boundary by Balvaird Castle car park from Saturday, 18 November.

The three-week project will be carried out by Stabilised Pavements Ltd, a specialist contractor which uses an innovative road recycling technique which saves time, money and reduces CO2.

Councillor Altany Craik said: "We maintain over 2,400 km of roads in Fife and we are spending nearly £8 million this year repairing and improving them.

"Our road network is vital to support economic development, inward investment, tourism, leisure and travel to work. Almost everyone in Fife uses our roads on a daily basis, which is why this type of maintenance work is so essential.

"We apologise for any inconvenience and delay caused by these essential works, and we will try to keep any disturbance to a minimum. Your patience and co-operation during this time is greatly appreciated."
