A9 Tomatin-Moy speed limit drops to 40mph for three years

Transport Scotland has announced that a temporary 40mph speed limit will be enforced on the A9 between Tomatin and Moy starting March 10, lasting until spring 2028 as part of dualling works. This speed limit is accompanied by various traffic management measures, including temporary safety cameras and narrowed lanes to enhance safety during construction. Cabinet Secretary for Transport Fiona Hyslop emphasized the importance of this speed reduction for the safety of both road users and construction workers, urging drivers to plan their journeys accordingly. Temporary traffic signals will also be in place during the nights for about ten days, but pedestrian access and public transport services will remain unaffected. Road users are advised to adhere to signage and exercise caution in the construction area. The overall project aims to fully dual the A9 from Inverness to Perth by 2035.
