Project Overview 

We are replacing the water main along the B8016 to ensure residents continue to enjoy clear, fresh drinking water.

Work is planned to begin in February and a start date will be confirmed in due course. The work is expected to last three months. 

Throughout the works, the B8016 will remain closed at a section near Laggan Bridge. Diversion routes will be in place. Information on this can be found in the pictures below.
