Glasgow Road, A8 and Ingliston interchange

Improvements to road surfaces and drainage

We're improving the road surfaces and drainage on the A8 at Glasgow Road and the Ingliston interchange. This will improve driving conditions and enhance road safety.

Road resurfacing and drainage work will start on Monday 16 September and is expected to finish in March 2025.

Phases

The work will be done in four phases and will temporarily stop between 30 November and 5 January to minimise disruption during the busy festive period.

Each phase of work will be split into two parts:

  • Drainage improvement work. This will take place during the day, Mondays – Thursdays between 9.30am – 3.30pm.
     
  • Road resurfacing work. This will take place overnight, Mondays – Fridays between 7.30pm and 6.30am.

Phase 1, 16 September 2024 - 25 October 2024
A8 Eastbound - from Ingliston Interchange North West slip-road To Gogar Roundabout.

Phase 2, 28 October 2024 - 15 November 2024

Phase 3, 18 November 2024 - 29 November 2024

Phase 4, 6 January 2025 - March 2025

Diversions and traffic management

Road closures and traffic diversions will be in place during the road resurfacing works. These will typically be in place from Mondays to Saturdays between 7.30pm and 6.30am. All roads will be open to traffic outwith these times. No road closures will be in place during the day.

Some road diversions will be in place during the work and this will affect some bus services, including the airport buses. Download maps of diversions for each phase.
