A82 TARBET TO ARDEN. A814 LOCH LONG ROAD.

The Issue

Further to my previous petition back 6years ago in relation to the previous accidents on this stretch of the a82. We are back again with a New petetion To ensure we fight and ensure something gets done in regards to this. 

 

 

Sadly following the fatal accident on the a82 near culag/inverbeg on 17/4/2023 thoughts are with the families and all involved. 

Being a local in the Area, all my life. Its sad to see the amount of accidents on this a82.

 

 

***** CURRENTLY ANY ACCIDENT FROM ARDEN ROUNDABOUT IS DIVERTED TOWARDS GARLOCHHEAD AND UP THE A814 TOWARDS ARROCHAR ON THE SMALL BENDY LOCH LONG ROAD. 

 

  1. SAME FROM A82 TARBET JUNCTION JOINS THE A83 HEADING NORTH AND DIVERTED VIA THE A814 AT ARROCHAR CROSS ROADS. AND THE A83 FROM REST AND BE THANKFUL HEADING SOUTH WILL BE DIVERTED VIA THE A814. 

 

 

THIS ROAD A814 CLEAR SIGNAGE *UNSUITABLE FOR HGVS* THIS ROAD IS VERY NARROW. AND BAD WITH 2 STANDARDS CARS PASSING, NEVER MIND HGVS. AND LARGER CAMPERS.

 

  1. IF THIS ROUTE BECOMES BLOCKED, WHICH IT HAS ON MANY SITUATIONS. IT LEAVES ARROCHAR AND OTHER AREAS WITH NO ACCESS, GOD FOR BIT THERE WAS AN EMERGENCY! 

NOW THINK ABOUT IT! 2 LORRYS DRIVING OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS BECOME STUCK ON THE NARROW ROAD. AND A FRIEND, VISITOR, FAMILY MEMEBER TAKES UNWELL. THERE IS NO ACCESS TO THE AREA BECAUSE THESE TWO VECHILES  ARE STUCK AND BLOCKING THE ROUTE. 

 

RELEVENT DEPARTMENTS POLICE SCOTLAND AND ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL SHOULD WORK TOGETHER AND ENSURE THERE ARE AUTHORTIES AT WHISTLE FIELD ROUNDABOUT, ( NEAR GARLOCHHEAD) AND ARROCHAR A814 JUNCTION CROSS ROAD. 

THERE SHOULD BE A WIDTH AND HEIGHT RESTRICTION ON THIS A814. NO LARGE  VECHILES  SHOULD HAVE ACCESS ON THIS DIVERSION  ROUTE UNLESS IT IS DEEMED URGENT. THERE FORE NO BLOCKAGES WILL BE MADE. UNLESS THIS IS URGENT, there is means and ways to keep the traffic flowing. Without any blockages on A814.  And this is the point of this petition is to accept all comments, and it will be automatically  forwarded to the relevant departments.
