Drivers are facing a five-week road closure near to two schools in Renfrewshire.

Corseford Avenue, close to Fordbank Primary and Johnstone High School, is to shut from the junction of Tweed Place to the junction of Ness Avenue.

This is while sewage connection works are carried out. 

The closure will be in place from Tuesday, October 1 to Friday, November 8.

Vehicles left on the road in contravention of the restriction will be moved out of the works area.

Emergency access will be maintained and access to premises will be maintained where possible.

The alternative route for drivers is as follows: Beith Road to Cochranemill Road and vice versa.
