Repairs being carried out at the Gremista roundabout.
Drivers have been warned of significant delays while repairs are carried out to a burst watermain at a busy roundabout.
Three-way traffic lights have been set up at the Gremista roundabout while Scottish Water carry out the repairs.
Queues of traffic had built up in all directions at lunchtime today (Monday).
The SIC has advised motorists to consider alternative routes via the A970 South Road and B9074 Black Gaet.
Buses using the route are also subject to long delays.

If the old UPVC Water main was replaced and relayed at the same time as the round-a-bout was constructed with a new MDPE Main,
Then this situation could have been avoided, and at a fraction of the cost and inconvenience,
But that would have needed “Will power” , “Fore sight” and “Common sense” ,
