ROADWORKS will force the closure of a section of a busy route in and out of Dunbar.

Spott Road will be closed between the junctions of Lochend Road and Bellevue Avenue from Monday to Friday, 9am to 4pm, over the next two weeks.

The road will reopen over the weekends and pedestrian and emergency services access will be retained throughout the works.

A signed diversion route along the A1087 and A1 will be in place during the closures.

A spokesperson for East Lothian Council said: “We've worked closely with bus companies to minimise disruption.

“Posters are being placed at bus stops along the route and we recommend that passengers check with the transport company before they travel.”
