A major pinchpoint on the A77 between the port of Cairnryan and Ayr has been re-opened at the cost of almost £8.7m.
Work at the Carlock Wall, south of Ballantrae, had been expected to take six months, after efforts to tackle potential landslides there began early in 2020.
The nature of the work, which saw one of the lanes fully closed as the steep embankment directly below the road was excavated and then stabilised, meant only one lane was open and traffic signals put in place.
