Knoydart Bridge deck replacements project

We are planning to replace two bridges on the road between Inverie and Airor on the Knoydart peninsula. The two bridges are Aultvoulin (or Mill Burn) and Sandaig.

Temporary road closures will be required at each bridge during the works. We will provide updates, including the expected dates of the works.

Contact our Structures Team if you have any further questions.
