Junction 3 on the M8 eastbound is closed.

During the slip road closure, traffic heading to Livingston will be directed to leave the M8 at Junction 3A, the junction prior to where the works are taking place. The diversion will follow Carnegie Road, Deans Road and the A89 east to join the A899 Livingston Road at Dechmont Roundabout. This will add less than one mile and typically less than five minutes to journey times – though longer delays can be expected during peak times. Westbound M8 motorway traffic will remain unaffected.
