WORK is underway to upgrade a bridge over the railway on Duntocher Road next to Dalmuir Railway Station.

The 11-week Network Rail project, which runs until November 21, will see the crossing strengthened and improved to support the long-term safety and reliability of the railway below.

Work includes reinforcing the bridge beams, installing new kerbs and guardrails, replacing damaged bay slabs, and resurfacing the footpaths.

Stephen Orr, scheme project manager at Network Rail, said, “This project is essential to maintaining the safe operation of both the railway and the bridge at Dalmuir.

“The improvements will help protect the structure for years to come, and we’re working hard to complete the work with as little disruption as possible.

“We’re grateful to the local community, road users and passengers for their patience and understanding as we carry out these important upgrades.”
