Construction company Markon have been appointed by the Highland Council to carry out road marking works to assist in renewing Academy Street, Inverness, to pre-Covid traffic management.

Works will commence on Monday, November 4 and take between 4 and 5 days to complete, subject to weather conditions.

The bollards at Academy Street will be removed just before the road marking works begin, with the exception of those erected outside the Taxi Rank in the middle of the road on the approach to the Union Street Junction.

These bollards are remaining as permanent traffic management measures to prevent U-turn manoeuvres.

The work is being planned to keep disruption at a minimum, however, drivers using Academy Street should allow extra time for their journeys.

Most of the work is being carried out during the daytime, although some will take place in the evening/overnight. Public Transport provision will be largely unaffected by the works.
