TWO roads are set to be closed during the King's visit to the Wee County later this week.

The Advertiser announced on Monday, January 13 that King Charles will be arriving in Alloa on Thursday, January 16.

This marks the first visit from the head of the Royal Family in nearly 30 years, the last recorded instance taking place in 1997.

King Charles will be stopping by The Gate Charity, to hear about the work they and several other charities in Clacks do.

This will mean that there will be road closures in operation for the duration of his stay, with motorists urged to take note and plan ahead if they need to drive.
