Tommy Deans, BEAR Scotland's Network Manager for South East Scotland, said: "It is essential to close the northbound M90 on the night of 12 January to allow safe access for our operatives to repair sign panels on overhead gantries.

"We've scheduled the works at night to minimise disruption, however motorists planning to travel on the night of 12 January should plan ahead and allow some extra time for their journey.

"We're grateful to road users and local communities for their patience."

All work is weather dependent and may be cancelled or postponed in the event of adverse conditions.
