Motorists who use the westbound M876 at Bonnybridge are being told to plan ahead as roadworks are to start in a bid to improve drainage.
It means that from Monday March 7, between 7:30pm and 6:00am until Friday March 11, the on-slip at Junction 1 will be closed.
Road bosses hope the work will help to reduce flooding in the area during heavy rain.
A diversion route for traffic wishing to join the M876 westbound will be signposted via the A883 and A803 to M80 Junction 7, adding an estimated 5 minutes and 2.7 miles to affected journeys.
