Mike Ferguson Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 I intend to be there. Â Is anyone able to confirm that the road will be clear of traffic cones? Â I think there is planned overnight work at West Ferry 25th and 26th. Â Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions George Posted May 26, 2015 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Could anyone that is driving or riding on Westferry today post up what the cone situation is? Â I'll likely go do something else if there are roadworks. Â Ta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Cowden Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 https://m.trafficscotland.org/roadworks/ha/c590595  Hope my attempt at new technology works!   It seems there is a total closure eastbound between Junctions 31 (Westferry and Junction 30 (Bishopton).  The recommended Diversion for traffic is to come off at Westferry, retrace steps to Newark/Clune/Kilmacolm, thence to the  Morrisons Junction to join A737, then to M8 at the Racecourse.  Someone local can comment on cones but I can't imagine the motorway being closed Eastbound without substantial lane closure leading up to it.  Unless anyone can confirm the works are completed early and the road clear, I will give it a miss!  Iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Jannza Posted May 26, 2015 Administrators Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Cones aren't out at the moment. They are sitting on the central reservation ready to go in place. Signs are out too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions PaulL Posted May 26, 2015 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 As Jann says cones are in central reservation, only one sign out was on slip road to final roundabout " Road closed here May 25th 20.00 to 06.00 for 2 nights" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions George Posted May 26, 2015 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 What do people think? Â I don't want to waste a night by turning up & not getting a ride. Â Do you want to postpone the 10 & just go to the Georgetown? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EPCC Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 My concern is that they will be laying out the cones during our ride so can we ask the committee to postpone this event and we can go to the Georgetown instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions iain couttie Posted May 26, 2015 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 In the name of safety I will authorise the change to the Georgetown as it seems we will lose riders otherwise. The fact its shorter does not affect my decision. Â iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Cowden Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Many thanks to Jann and PaulL for checking it out - agree it seems wise to steer clear of Westferry tonight. Â Iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
