 Roadwork Information – A82 Corran Ferry – B863 – Northbound & Southbound – Onich
As you may be aware, there is to be a road closure in place on the A82 in Onich. The closure, which may affect some festival traffic, will be in place between 21.00 and 06.00 on Sunday 24th February. This will impact on traffic travelling south between Fort William and Ballachulish. We have been given contact details for a site representative, who we can contact when the festival finishes. He will provide traffic with a safe route through the site. This should occur at approximately 2 hourly intervals; however there may be a delay depending on what operation is taking place on site at the time.
