Delays possible on diverted Old Finstown Road route

We are advising motorists of the potential for delays in the coming days on the diversion route currently in place at Old Finstown Road and Zion’s Loan while the main road is closed at Finstown for resurfacing works.

A large delivery of stone destined for Cursiter Quarry is due to arrive at Hatston tomorrow, Thursday, lunchtime – unfortunately this delivery was delayed from last week due to weather and shipping logistics.

As a result, lorries will be running back and forth on the diverted route to the quarry from around 2pm tomorrow until Sunday, possibly into Monday of next week, which may lead to delays for other motorists.

We would ask that motorists take extra care when approaching the quarry vicinity and be extra vigilant for vehicles manoeuvring in the area.

We apologise for the potential disruption this may cause.
