The A85 Trunk Road (Taynuilt) (Temporary Prohibition on Use of Road) Order 2018

The Scottish Ministers give notice that they have made the above Order under sections 2(1) and (2), 4(1) and 16A of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, temporarily prohibiting traffic on that length of the A85 Tyndrum - Oban Trunk Road from a point 100 metres or thereby southeast of its junction with the B845 road to Taynuilt Station in a northwestwards direction to a point 100 metres or thereby northwest of the said B845 junction, a distance of 200 metres or thereby.

The Order, which is required to facilitate the holding of the Taynuilt Highland Games Parade 2018 and to enable members of the public to watch this event will be in operation from 21 July 2018 until 22 July 2018.  The Order does not apply to vehicles while being used in an emergency for fire service, coastguard, ambulance or police purposes or to acts done with the permission or upon the direction of a police constable in uniform.

Alternative routes

An alternative route for traffic during the prohibition is not required as restrictions on the trunk road will only be in operation for a short period during these times.
