A83 IMPROVEMENTS AT REST AND BE THANKFUL

A83 IMPROVEMENTS AT REST AND BE THANKFUL

• Temporary traffic lights with a 30mph speed limit will be in place at Rest and Be Thankful from 12th October until the evening of 23rd December to facilitate the next phase of works.

BEAR Scotland, on behalf of Transport Scotland, is continuing essential maintenance works on the A83 at the Rest and Be Thankful.

The next phase of works will focus on lower slope stabilisation and the installation of stock-proof fencing, both of which are vital to improving the resilience of the route.

To ensure the safety of the workforce and members of the travelling public, temporary traffic lights will be in place from Monday 12 October until Wednesday 23 December when all temporary traffic management will be removed to allow the A83 to fully reopen over the festive break, subject to weather and hillside conditions.

Maintenance works will recommence in early 2027 and further updates will be provided once details of the proposed works have been confirmed.

Roads users are thanked for their patience and understanding during this period.
