Northlanarkshire Council have issued a notice of planned roadworks on and around the Old Inns roundabout in Cumbernauld, which will affect traffic in the area.

The council said: "In August we will be carrying out extensive resurfacing work on the roundabout itself, located just off the M80, and surrounding roads.

"As a result, a number of roads to and from the roundabout will be closed from 8.00pm on Friday 2 August until 6.00am on Monday 5 August."

The affected roads include:

• Eastfield Road, from the garden centre roundabout

• Castlecary Road (B816), from the exit to the service station

• Wilderness Brae (A8011), from the traffic signals at the M80 Junction 6 southbound slip roads

• Northbound off/on slip roads from the M80 Junction 6

The B816 Castlecary Road will also be closed from Old Inns roundabout to the Wardpark roundabout, from 06.00am on Monday 5 August to 6.00pm on Friday 9 August.

Signed diversions will be in place throughout these closures.

The works will improve the road surface on this busy section of the road network, and have been scheduled during the holiday period to minimize disruption to traffic in the area.
