MOTORISTS using Glasgow's Kingston Bridge and adjoining motorway network could face severe delays from tonight, when resurfacing work begins, according to Strathclyde Police, which said several of the bridge lanes and ramps would be closed for up to five weeks between 8pm and 6am to facilitate the work. The ramp closures may also be in place at weekends.

The work is unrelated to ongoing strengthening work on the bridge and may be subject to alteration at short notice. Police said drivers should allow extra time for their journeys.
