• Traffic to be diverted onto the Old Military Road from
• The diversion will continue overnight as a safety precaution

Motorists are advised that traffic at the A83 Rest and Be will move from the A83 under convoy control to the Old Thankful Road diversion route from 2:30pm today.  Traffic will then continue to be diverted onto the Old Military Road overnight.  This decision has been taken as a safety precaution due to higher than anticipated rainfall today and brown water being observed in several hillside channels.

Our team continues to have a presence on site and are monitoring conditions closely.  A further update will be issued if the weather forecast or hillside conditions mean a change to the traffic management arrangement is needed.

Real time journey information is available from Traffic Scotland on www.trafficscotland.org, twitter at @trafficscotland and the mobile site my.trafficscotland.org.
