A West Fife road is set to be closed next week while vital work to cut back trees and vegetation is ongoing.

The closure will take place on Tuesday, October 22 and Wednesday, October 23 at Low Causeway, known locally as Sharps Brae, for tree work.

This will impact the Queen Anne 14 and 15 buses, which have to use Low Valleyfield Main Street to get to and from Culross and will miss out Low Causeway.

The stops at the bottom of Valleyfield Avenue will not be served and pupils will need to go to alternative stops at Newmills Bridge.

A spokesperson for Fife Council said: “The road closure is necessary to allow the safe removal of vegetation overhanging the road. Drivers will be able to travel along Main Street, Low Valleyfield and continue on through the village.  

“The closed section is between Main Street, Low Valleyfield and the B9037.”
