Why is the emphasis of the Campaign on the Tarbet to Fort William length of the A82?
The Route Action Plan followed some earlier work that examined the A82 as the main corridor for goods and services to be transported in and out of the West Highlands, Skye and the Western Isles. It is a vital lifeline route carrying business traffic, visitors and local commuters. In addition, the A82 from Balloch to Invergarry, then the A87 to Uig is an official Trans-European Route which gives it a higher status than the northern section to Inverness.
