Transport Scotland has published a series of statutory orders for two schemes on the A75 – the Dunragit by-pass and the upgrade to the Hardgrove section. The £15.9m Dunragit by-pass scheme, to the east of Stranraer, involves the creation of a new 5.3 kilometre stretch of trunk road. The £9.5m Hardgrove project, between Carrutherstown and Upper Mains Farm in Dumfries and Galloway, will see a new 3.6 kilometre stretch of the A75 providing improved overtaking facilities in both the east and westbound directions. Work will start on both projects in 2009/10. |
