Phase Three (November 5-15): Resurfacing of Pitlessie Road from the junction with B9129 Commercial Road to Alpine Cottage. The railway car park will be closed during this phase, but pedestrian access will be maintained.

Please note that there will be two road closures during the works: from October 21st to November 4th at the Masonic Lodge to B938 Commercial Road junction, and from October 21st to November 15th at the Pitlessie Road junction to Commercial Road.

Councillor Altany Craik, Fife Council's Spokesperson for Finance, Economy and Strategic Planning said: "We maintain over 2,400km of roads in Fife and we're spending millions each 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."

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