Stewarton Kirkford Bridge Overflow Upgrade

Kirkford Bridge

The road is a key route into Stewarton from the M77 and Glasgow

At this location:

We are updating an existing storm overflow and associated pipework to help alleviate flooding during periods of extreme weather.

Work began in June 2025 and will take approximately six months to complete. The required road closure was timed to coincide with the school summer holiday to minimise disruption to the community and was completed nearly a month ahead of schedule.

The project is part of our £500million Improving Urban Waters investment programme.
