Surface dressing update for Friday 18 June

Surface dressing works have progressed well today, 17 June, on the B9069 in Sanday, between West Langamay and Russness Cottage.

Tomorrow, Friday 18 June, may see crews finishing off that section - if they do not manage to complete it this evening - which will complete their surface dressing work in Sanday.

Full road closures will be in place between 9am and 5pm (and possibly later if the crews are close to finishing the work).

Any changes will be posted in the News section of the Council’s website www.orkney.gov.uk/news.htm as well as on the OIC Updates Facebook page, and on Twitter @OIC_Roads.

The Council thanks motorists for their ongoing patience and cooperation and reminds drivers, for everyone's safety, to adhere to the speed limits in place after surface dressing works. Slower speeds will also help the chips bed in properly, for a durable finished result.
