ROADWORKS on Glasgow's M8 have been extended.
Major bridge works have been taking place on a section of the busy motorway between Cardonald and Braehead since March 15.
These were due to finish on June 30, but it has been revealed these will now be completed by July 4.
A 40mph speed limit has been in place for months, with average speed cameras in operation.
Amey, completing the work on behalf of Transport Scotland as part of the Network Management Contract for the South-West Trunk Road Unit, provided an update.
It read: "A full eastbound closure will be required overnight (10pm-6am) on Saturday, July 2, 2022, between Junctions 26 and 24 with off-side and adjacent lane closures required on the westbound carriageway.
"This will allow for the removal of TVRS, reinstatement of permanent road markings on the eastbound carriageway, and removal of two-speed cameras.
