Consultation has taken place with all relevant stakeholders, and access to emergency services will be maintained at all times.
Steve Taylor, BEAR Scotland’s North West Design Manager, said: “This programme of works on the A830 will address existing defects in the road surface, improve road markings and provide a safer crossing for pedestrians.
“Our teams will carry out these works as efficiently as possible, with safety as our top priority. We thank the local community and road users for their patience while we complete the improvements.”
