Motorists warned of Black Isle bridge repairs

Rosemarkie Bridge on the A832  Fortrose - Cromarty road is currently being repaired, having suffered damage as a result of the severe frost experienced during the last winters.  The bridge crosses the Rosemarkie Burn adjacent to what is locally known as Fairy Glen, on the Cromarty side of Rosemarkie.
 
From Thursday  (17 November), until further notice (expected to be just before Christmas), traffic will be diverted from the existing masonry bridge on to a temporary diversion immediately downstream of the existing bridge. The diversionary route is narrow with tight bends. It will be single way working with traffic lights.
 
Large vehicles are encouraged to use an alternative route, such as via Culbokie and Cullicudden.
