The reinstatement of electronic warning signs at the notorious Munlochy junction on the Black Isle has been welcomed by Rhoda Grant MSP.

The Highlands and Islands MSP campaigned for improvements in the area after being contacted by local residents who had fears about the safety of the junction. The connection on the electronic signage was due to be fixed in early April but was stalled due to the Covid-19 outbreak.

Mrs Grant has however received notification from the Scottish Government that the work has now been carried out following the relaxation of Covid-19 restrictions.

Mrs Grant said: “I am pleased the electronic warning signage is now fully operational and will play a part in improving safety at the junction. I believe further safety work should be carried out in the area as traffic travelling north still has to pass over a busy dual carriageway when entering or leaving the A9 at the junction but this signage being repaired is a first step in improving safety in the area.”
