Winchburgh’s new M9 motorway junction, ‘Junction 1B’, has opened for northbound local access, with southbound routes into Winchburgh to follow in the next couple of months.

A new junction for the M9 has been given the green light, paving the way for new access to the major development at Winchburgh in West Lothian.

Contractors Amey and Tarmac have managed to shave 19 hours off a 48-hour road surfacing operation on the M9. The project for Transport Scotland between Junctions 6 and 7 of the northbound carriageway saw Tarmac and Amey lay 2,460 tonnes of asphalt in just 29 hours – a significant time saving compa
