Traffic congestion warning to motorists

Motorists are being warned to expect continuing delays along a busy road in West Lothian.

Work is being carried out this week installing new traffic lights at the junction of Linburn Road with the A71 east of Wilkieston.

" Temporary traffic lights are in operation and there has been considerable congestion in the area," said a West Lothian Council spokesman.

" We are advising drivers to try to avoid the area if possible. We hope work will be completed by the end of this week."
