The Scottish Government has been criticised for failing to hold talks with the UK Government about possible upgrades to the A75.
When Holyrood’s Strategic Transport Review was announced earlier this year, it included plans to realign the Euroroute at Springholm and Crocketford.
And last year Westminster’s Union Connectivity Review recommended that “the UK Government should make a commitment to support a significant upgrade” of the A75 – despite roads being a devolved matter.
