TRANSPORT SCOTLAND UPDATE • A83 Rest & Be Thankful – continuing daily management of the traffic management on this stretch of the A83 to ensure safe passing of the travelling public with regular stakeholder updates advising of changes to the traffic management. There is a final section of debris flow barrier still to be installed at sectors 3a & 3b which is now planned for February, all of which is carried out in full co-ordination with the ongoing ground investigation works which will assist the design of the long term solution (Debris Flow Shelter). • A828 Ledaig Rock Slope – The main works due to commence on 27th January, which have been brought forward in response to the events of November last year when there was a requirement to remove a sizable boulder from the over hanging rock face – events are available on youtube. The main works will take around 12 weeks and include de-vegetation, de- scaling, removal of rock identified as a risk, installation of anchored support mesh & drapery netting • A85 Tyndrum to Dalmally Junction Signing – works are now substantially completed. • A85 Oban to Connel direction signs – There are 3 signs still to install which should progress through February 2025 to completion.
