Down The Old Military Road…

IMPROVEMENTS to the existing Old Military Road (OMR) through the Glen Croe corridor are being made to make it a more resilient diversion route until the long term solution to the problems at the A83 Rest and Be Thankful is in place.
Of the medium term options under consideration, the improvements to the OMR are the quickest to implement. These include debris catch fences, drainage improvements, widening and realignment to improve bends as well as avoid flooding. It is expected that these works will be carried out on a phased basis starting later this year to ensure that Argyll & Bute remains open for business.
