The A968 between Voe and Firth, known as Dales Lees, will reopen to through traffic from 5pm today (Mon 9th January).
The road was closed on Monday 19th December following a thaw, which saw three separate landslides along this stretch of road. Council staff and contractors have since cleared the road of debris and carried out repairs, including placing rock armour to support the carriageway. Further repairs to the barriers will be done at a later date but this will not need a road closure.
Bus Service 23 (Mossbank/Toft) will return to advertised timetables as the diversion through Brae will no longer be necessary.
