Hope to travel up on Thursday. Any updates much appreciated.

As far as I know road is now open, don't know if traffic lights involved.

That will be the one at Muasdale then Bonnie Lass?

Anyone got an update on the closure between Kennacraig and Tarbert?

I came up earlier, got here at 7ish and it was terrible at times - glad I was passed those two bits that were closed though. The part of the A82 between the Barloan Roundabout to Clydebank was particularly flooded. Yet, a mile or so on the ground at Knightswood was dry!!

The 5 pm bus had to go via Carradale - using a wee bus up to Ardrishaig, then transferring onto a proper one there. Not pleasant for the passenger I just collected in Glasgow ...

Road certainly open this morning but with traffic lights.
