The A83 has been closed this morning due to hillside concerns. Rainfall overnight has triggered a debris slide, which is ongoing. Geotechnical engineers are monitoring the situation as it develops.

As an immediate safety precaution, traffic has been moved to the diversion route via the A83/A82/A85 and A819 until the situation has stabilised and been assessed.

The Old Military Road is currently being mobilised for possible use later today.

Further updates will be issued.
