There will then be one overnight closure of the A77 between Whitletts Roundabout and Bankfield Roundabout with the A70 remaining open, between 8pm on Monday 13th January and 6am on Tuesday 14th January.
Northbound traffic will leave the A77 onto the A713 Dalmellington Road, continuing on Castlehill Road and joining the A70 Station Road before turning left onto the A79 John Street the taking the third exit at the roundabout onto the A719 Whittletts Rd and continuing to rejoin the A77 at Whitletts Roundabout.
Southbound traffic will take the route in reverse.
Traffic for the A77 from Coylton will continue on the A70 to Station Road and follow the north or southbound diversion.
There will then be works at Bankfield Roundabout requiring a full weekend closure of the A77 between Holmston Roundabout and the Maybole Road Junction between 8pm on Friday 17th January and 6am on Monday 20th January, followed by a final overnight closure at this location between 8pm on Monday 20th January and 6am on Tuesday 21st January 2025.
The A77 will be closed between Holmston Roundabout and the Maybole Road Junction for the duration of the works at Bankfield Roundabout.

Access for emergency service vehicles will be maintained throughout these works.
