Fife Council has announced an investment of £130,000 into improving the road network in Lochgelly.
Throughout February, the council will be carrying out carriageway resurfacing on Lumphinnans Road, Lochgelly from Saturday 02 February to Sunday 17 February 2019.
Cllr Altany Craik, Convener of Economy, Tourism, Strategic Planning and Transportation Committee 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."
The works will be carried out in two phases:
Phase 1 – Motion Street to Moffat Crescent
Phase 2 – Moffat Crescent to Buller Street.
Two-way temporary traffic lights will be used to control traffic during the works. Access to Lumphinnans Road from connecting side streets will not be possible during each phase of the works. Access for emergency services will be maintained at all times.
Cllr Craik concluded: "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."
