South Lanarkshire Council’s Head of Roads and Transportation Services, Gordon Mackay, said: “We are carrying out these improvement works overnight in a bid to minimise disruption to the majority of road users.
“Anyone who would normally be using Garrion Bridge during these dates and times should be aware of the closure and plan their journey accordingly.
“We apologise in advance for any inconvenience the works may cause but we feel this solution will allow us to complete the job quickly and with minimum disruption.”
