A busy Glasgow road near Silverburn will close from this weekend.

Barrhead Road will be closed to traffic in both directions at the M77 between Fairchild Avenue and Boydstone Road.

During the works, the M77 junction 2 northbound on-ramp will remain open throughout the works, but traffic will only be able to access the ramp from an eastbound direction on Barrhead Road.

The M77 Junction 2 southbound off-ramp will remain open throughout the works and traffic will be diverted eastbound onto Barrhead Road.
