The A830 Trunk Road (Glenfinnan) (Temporary Prohibition of Waiting) Order 2024

Notice of Direction Under Section 15(3) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984

THE SCOTTISH MINISTERS have directed that, as they propose to make provision to reproduce the effect of the A830 Trunk Road (Glenfinnan) (Temporary Prohibition of Waiting) Order 2024 (S.S.I. 2024/83) but that in consequence of the procedure required to be followed in connection with making that provision it cannot come into operation until the temporary order ceases to be in force, the temporary order shall continue in force.

The order has the effect of temporarily prohibiting waiting on that length of the A830 Fort William - Mallaig Trunk Road (Glenfinnan) from a point 2.858 kilometres or thereby south-east of the point where it meets the extended centreline of the U1191 Glenfinnan Pier Road (Slatach) in a north-west, west then north-west direction to a point 2.016 kilometres or thereby west of the point where it meets the extended centreline of the U5397 Torr An Eas, Glenfinnan Road, a distance of 6.008 kilometres or thereby.

The order, which was required because of likelihood of danger to the public, or of serious damage to the road, not attributable to road works was in operation from 21 March 2024. It would have expired on 21 September 2024 and will now continue in force until 21 March 2025, unless a further direction under section 15(3) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 is given, or the order is revoked or amended.

The order does not apply to vehicles being used in an emergency for fire brigade, ambulance, police or coastguard purposes.
