To allow the repairs to be completed safely, the road will be closed.
A diversion will be in place during the closure.
The diversion is as follows:
- Traffic will be diverted to exit the M74 via Junction 7 to join Lanark Road, from here they will re-join the M74 northbound carriageway via the on-slip road. Traffic will then continue to the Junction 6 northbound off-slip road to access the A723, Motherwell Road, where the diversion will end.
