A83 Taskforce ‘On The Case’

SCOTTISH Transport Minister Fiona Hyslop recently chaired her first meeting of the A83 Taskforce, held in Lochgilphead.
Members included local politicians, representatives of Argyll and Bute Council, community councils and business organisations, who were updated on the plans for the medium-term solution along the Old Military Road diversion.
Ms Hyslop said: “The Scottish Government remains committed to delivering a long-term solution to the landslip risks at the A83 Rest and Be Thankful.
“We are now considering the detailed development and assessment of the preferred route option with a view to publishing draft Orders by the end of next year.
“At the same time, we are progressing our plans to increase the resilience of the temporary diversion route along the Old Military Road (OMR) until the long term solution is in place,” she confirmed.
