Overview

The project aims to remove conflict between local and strategic traffic, relieve congestion in the town, and improve safety and journey time reliability on the A77 trunk road. 

The project is now under construction.

Impact during construction

Engaging with local communities is at the heart of all of Transport Scotland’s major construction projects and will continue to be vital as work progresses on constructing the A77 Maybole Bypass.

The Contractor has a dedicated Community Liaison Officer (CLO) who is committed to keeping the local community informed as the project progresses.

Please contact the CLO for any enquiries relating to the construction of this project:

Traffic management

As most of the construction work will take place off-line, it is anticipated that temporary disruption to trunk road traffic will be predominantly limited to periods when connections of the bypass to the existing A77 trunk road are being built.

We will make every effort to minimise disruption where possible, however road users should expect some disruption to the traffic flow and should allow additional time for journeys.

Environmental impact

Environmental impact was assessed in detail and proposed mitigation measures are contained within the Environmental Statement as published.
