However, I failed to find the plaque marking the spot where the fictional Barry from EastEnders was pushed to his death by the equally fictional Janine. Scotland has some weird stuff!

Love this little addition to a Strong Winds warning sign I spotted near the Rest And Be Thankful during a quick hillwalking trip to the Arrochar Alps yesterday.

2/3 The 200ha new native wood overseen by operations forester James Hand will help stabilize the hillside and lessen the risk of road closures cutting off local communities in the years ahead. 👏 And it will boost biodiversity and water quality too.👍

Building on having met all milestones set out in the delivery plan to dual the A9 since it was published in December 2023, in the coming year we will: ● Publish draft Orders for the Pass of Birnam to Tay Crossing in Spring 2025. ● Award the fourth construction contract, for the Tay Crossing to Ballinluig, and commence procurement of the fifth construction contract, Pitlochry to Killiecrankie, both in summer 2025.

Progressing work to determine the most suitable procurement option for delivering the A96 Dualling Inverness to Nairn (including Nairn Bypass).

A83 road suffering from climate impacts, caused in part by transport emissions, needs considerable expenditure to protect from landslides... PfG says... Progressing delivery of the next phase of the medium-term improvements at the A83 Rest and Be Thankful and on the statutory authorisation process for the remaining elements of the medium-term improvements and the long-term solution.
