Kirkwall road works planned

Orkney Islands Council is advising that essential maintenance work is set to take place on Victoria Street in Kirkwall from tomorrow, Monday.

There will be road closures, from tomorrow until the following Friday, while the work is carried out. Pedestrian access along the road will be unaffected throughout this duration.

There will, however, be limited access on Victoria Street for vehicles before 9am, between 12 noon and 1pm, and after 3.30pm.

The council has said the work is weather-dependent and therefore may take longer than planned.
