A72 Walkerburn Major Resurfacing Works

12th Aug 2026 - 5th Sep 2026

Please be advised that we have been informed that the A72 through Walkerburn will be closed to large vehicles between 08:00 and 17:00, from Monday 24 August to Friday 4th September 2026, excluding weekends, to allow major resurfacing works to take place.

As a result, the normal through operation of the X62 will be temporarily suspended during these times. A shuttle bus service will operate between the Caberston Road bus stop in Walkerburn (on Galashiels Road) and the lay-by on the eastern side of Innerleithen.

Bus stops beyond Caberston Road End and along the 20mph section towards Innerleithen will not be served while the roadworks are in place.

Customers travelling through the affected area will be required to transfer between the shuttle bus and the normal X62 service at the Caberston Road bus stop and the Innerleithen lay-by in order to continue their journey in either direction.

Minor delays are also expected throughout the duration of these works.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank customers for their patience and understanding while these essential road improvements are carried out.

The High Street and Eastgate will be subject to rolling road closures between 10:30 and 11:00 and 17:15 and 18:30 to allow parade processions to pass through the town.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
